Leaked autopsy report supports Darren Wilson’s account of Michael Brown shooting

[Hoyt]

29. Most, if not all, the witnesses say there was an altercation at the car. But the autopsy does not

address what happened after Brown ran from the car.

I cannot see any justification for shooting Brown that many times once he had moved away from Wilson. Wilson had supposedly called backup and should have waited for them to arrive (although that likely would have just resulted in Brown being shot by several policemen).

I do not believe Brown was charging Wilson. If anything, it might have been like a boxer who is hurt and reaches in desperation toward their opponent for something to hold them up. If an armed Wilson can't handle an unarmed man who was already shot, without killing him, he should at a minimum be fired.

With all that said, I don't think Wilson will be tried. The prosecutor could have gone straight to court for a preliminary hearing if he really intended to charge Wilson.

I think they have been dragging their feet for a couple of reasons -- (1) they waited for all the evidence to come in to ensure Wilson and his handlers could concoct a story that didn't conflict with the evidence available; and (2) to let the community calm down before they blame lack of action on the grand jury.
