This whole thing smacks of a cover up which began the very night Brown was murdered.

(36,594 posts)She is looking at the autopsy in a vacuum and has zero interpretation of the facts on scene or eyewitness. This story is so biased in so many ways. True representation of racism in justice system. Wilson is a cold blooded killer who will skate because brown was a black man.

(2,020 posts)That does not sound like appropriate police procedure to begin with. Why did Wilson not stop his car and step out of the car to talk to Brown and the other young man? Grabbing someone by the throat and dragging them into the window of the patrol car is setting up a dangerous situation because anyone will struggle when grabbed by the neck.
Does not surprise me that Brown could have been shot in the hand inside the patrol car. Wilson is the person that initiated bringing Mr. Brown inside the patrol car. Wilson was probably fumbling with his gun when he was trying to choke Brown and somehow managed to accidentally discharge the gun, then proceeds to keep shooting the kid since he had to justify shooting his weapon inside his vehicle. Better a dead kid than getting canned for improperly firing your weapon. This officer is a menace to society.
The Washington Post has been turned into a right wing propaganda machine by Bezos. What a joke. How sad to see the once mighty paper turned into a propaganda rag no better than the Columbus Dispatch. The villagers are having a tough week. Chuck Todd continues to humiliate the villagers (Way to go Alison!) and now the Post putting out this propaganda about Ferguson.

I think that applies to a lot of people. The police officer was tried and convicted by most before an investigation even began.
Those pesky facts, though...
