(11,065 posts)that he saw the entire incident and that Brown did not raise his hands in surrender but merely pulled his arms away from his sides and also said that he then approached the officer. The media has been reporting for quite some time there there are witnesses on both sides of the story.
This kind of stuff is exactly why one should wait until an investigation is done to find out the actual facts before running amok on claims made to the media particularly those of anonymous sources.
The authorities HAVE been above board. It's the anonymous leaks and claims made by liars that people have decided to listen to and then claim that authorities have lied. Name one instance where the authorities haven't been above board. What little they've said hasn't been found to be false or otherwise not above board. Authorities have been the ones to discount false rumors like the anonymous rumor that Wilson had a fractured eye socket. Prosecutors denied that was the case saying they didn't have his medical records from the incident at that time. All the authorities ever claimed was that he had a swollen face.
