69. Brown was shot to death WITH HIS HANDS UP.

Mon Aug 18, 2014, 01:43 PM

Aug 2014

He had bullet holes on the inside of his arm, consistent with Brown walking away or putting his hands up, according to the Brown family autopsy.

And when Brown started to fall from the initial shots, cop Darren Wilson kept firing, which presumably is how Wilson got the fatal shot through the top of the 6 ' 4" Brown's head. Wilson executed an unarmed man from a safe distance. There was no gun powder residue on Brown. It was murder.
