17. That's the trial balloon "Josie" floated.

She was not a witness, but reportedly a friend of Wilson's gf. Obviously just saying what Wilson instructed her to, cause hes too chickenshit to make a statement to the media. Plus, any words from his mouth can be used as evidence. So he uses a stooge.

FWIW, video at the shooting scene does not appear to show any facial injury, blood, or even signs that he is in pain (the claimed injury is extremely painful). Nor do any other cops on scene appear to pay attention or look closely at his face. No medical personel or ambulance were summoned to the scene. Wilson apparently drove himself home. Unknown if he sought treatment after leaving the scene, but it would be fairly easy for him to produce medical records to back up his claim, should he decide to make a public statement.

Ferguson cop had "serious facial injury"? [View all] louis-t Aug 2014 OP

self inflicted or done by other fellow officers to make it look like Brown attacked him. SummerSnow Aug 2014 #1

Exactly n/t Matrosov Aug 2014 #3

Nah--he smacked his own face into the car or the car door as he jumped out after the kid. tblue37 Aug 2014 #6

Yeap, he was pissed because he got smacked by his own door uponit7771 Aug 2014 #21

That is the whole point, no decent human being would believe ONE WORD any official in that BaggersRDumb Aug 2014 #51

I seriously doubt that the kid hit the cop at all. If he did, there would be evidence on his hand, tblue37 Aug 2014 #56

Agreed...just saying that if he did, the cop probably deserved it BaggersRDumb Aug 2014 #58

And we all know that Brown was a gentle giant Boudica the Lyoness Aug 2014 #68

Probably from slamming his own face into the car door or car frame as he leapt out of the car tblue37 Aug 2014 #4

The cop's bit about the car door could explain it Warpy Aug 2014 #5

Mr. Brown's hand only had the graze wound. MohRokTah Aug 2014 #13

Then I suggest another object was smartly applied to Wilson's face Warpy Aug 2014 #16

No signs of struggle on Brown, just his face had wound uponit7771 Aug 2014 #20

A blow hard enough to inflict a blowout fracture of the eye socket should at least leave a bruise Maedhros Aug 2014 #22

Yes. HooptieWagon Aug 2014 #24

Where's the medical/hospital record for "eye socket fracture"?? DinahMoeHum Aug 2014 #27

Good question. Apparently there isn't one.... HooptieWagon Aug 2014 #90

Thanks. n/t amandabeech Aug 2014 #94

I've seen them with only minor swelling come in to the hospital Warpy Aug 2014 #26

I was thinking something besides broken skin myself Kalidurga Aug 2014 #41

On the flip side, though, the reports seem to indicate that Wilson pulled Brown INTO the car. Maedhros Aug 2014 #65

Thanks makes this story of Brown being agressive sound even more ludicris. Kalidurga Aug 2014 #67

Orbital fractures and the attendant bruising Warpy Aug 2014 #19

except there is no evidence that Zimmerman faked his injuries Vattel Aug 2014 #23

Is there evidence (beyond his own testimony) that he didn't fake his injuries? Laelth Aug 2014 #30

Yes, he had signs of injury right from the get go. Vattel Aug 2014 #40

But it was not evidence of someone pounding his head into concrete within an inch of his life. Hoyt Aug 2014 #55

To my knowledge, nobody said his head was pounded into concrete within an inch of is life. Vattel Aug 2014 #71

yeah he had a scratch or two. The kind of scratch you get when you snag your head on a low hanging notadmblnd Aug 2014 #63

I doubt it, but maybe he did Vattel Aug 2014 #72

There was a small tree right where they were. Darn sure wasn't getting his head bashed in. Hoyt Aug 2014 #73

Ya know, I don't consider myself above average in intelligence notadmblnd Aug 2014 #74

Main reason I did is I've scraped my bald head like that many times. Hoyt Aug 2014 #77

The cops bought his story. MohRokTah Aug 2014 #79

Couldn't stand to look at himself in the mirror. JEB Aug 2014 #10

IF he was injured, we know for a FACT Mr. Brown was not the one who injured him. MohRokTah Aug 2014 #11

Didn't one of the witnesses, Tiffany, say she witnessed the struggle? cbdo2007 Aug 2014 #29

No, she witnessed brown being "pulled" into car uponit7771 Aug 2014 #32

Tiffany Mitchell described seeing �Michael and the officer wrestling through the [car] window.� cbdo2007 Aug 2014 #48

once again notice how anything said by a black Solomon Aug 2014 #54

Where have I discounted any of the rest of her statement? cbdo2007 Aug 2014 #57

if he were injured, wouldn't the EMTs have been summoned? fishwax Aug 2014 #25

They are working on that right now. Hoyt Aug 2014 #28

What I don't understand is why he felt he had to shoot the kid. I just don't get it. MADem Aug 2014 #33

There was nothing wrong with him when he was walking around the victim's body CanonRay Aug 2014 #37

This is why he should never have been allowed to leave the scene of the crime. sabrina 1 Aug 2014 #39

As I wrote earlier JustAnotherGen Aug 2014 #59

If he had been injured in this manner we would have been informed about it immediately by the police crazylikafox Aug 2014 #60

Gee, it's so easy to believe Brown hurt him. So, so easy. NOT!!!! nt valerief Aug 2014 #61
