Because they KNOW it is a lie and that the person in the video is not Brown. Rex Aug 2014 #19

It is Brown in the video. MohRokTah Aug 2014 #34

Yeah looking at the two pictures, what stands out are the shoes. Rex Aug 2014 #53

It was Brown (and Johnson). Ms. Toad Aug 2014 #91

That was my thought, as well. hamsterjill Aug 2014 #21

Too true. Faux pas Aug 2014 #25

The shoving made it robbery, under Missouri law. n/t Ms. Toad Aug 2014 #92

The shove looked bad, for sure. Faux pas Aug 2014 #97

Absolutely. Ms. Toad Aug 2014 #98

Another black man killed over a small amount of tobacco? Erich Bloodaxe BSN Aug 2014 #10

Since the photos show the suspect assaulting a clerk, LisaL Aug 2014 #11

I said 'petty crimes'. I was using the word simply as a generic adjective Erich Bloodaxe BSN Aug 2014 #14

Seriously? You think pushing a store clerk around in this fashion is minor? LisaL Aug 2014 #16

Point is, it's not a death penalty offense. merrily Aug 2014 #27

I've been pushed around more than that Erich Bloodaxe BSN Aug 2014 #48

But the clerk threatend him first. Johonny Aug 2014 #23

Those pictures are not conclusive that the person is Brown. nt ChisolmTrailDem Aug 2014 #31

Clothing seems to match. LisaL Aug 2014 #37

Actually, a link to a pic of Brown after he was killed (posted down-thread) seems to match the ChisolmTrailDem Aug 2014 #44

The Clothing Does Not Match garagedoor Aug 2014 #43

Where is the waistband of those "pants"? jberryhill Aug 2014 #46

Again, the video clothing isn't a match with the Dead Body garagedoor Aug 2014 #51

EXACTLY!! The "sag" of the bottoms are the biggest tell tale its not brown uponit7771 Aug 2014 #49

Are the police releasing this, yet will not release the shooter-cop's name?? WinkyDink Aug 2014 #28

The name was released already. LisaL Aug 2014 #30

It was my understanding the name was first revealed by sources other than the police. WinkyDink Aug 2014 #32

No, that's not accurate. LisaL Aug 2014 #35

It is a violent act, but where's the proof that it's Michael Brown? conservaphobe Aug 2014 #36

That was quick. I got to read the first post but not the second. Lochloosa Aug 2014 #41

I missed the second one as well. conservaphobe Aug 2014 #42

OK, so Brown was the primary suspect in what appears to be shop lifting etherealtruth Aug 2014 #66

I'm going to try to answer that carefully so I don't get pummeled or start trouble cleduc Aug 2014 #76

The cop reportedly was not even aware that brown was a suspect etherealtruth Aug 2014 #84

Initially, no. He was concerned with them blocking the street. BUT cleduc Aug 2014 #85

Oddly that detail was added MUCH later etherealtruth Aug 2014 #86

So some of the media claims BUT cleduc Aug 2014 #88

A diversion from the real issue is all damnedifIknow Aug 2014 #69

Except the officer who had shot Brown had not seen these images intaglio Aug 2014 #71
