In reply to the discussion: BREAKING VIDEO: Police Lied. Mike Brown was killed 148 feet away from Darren Wilson's SUV [View all]helpmetohelpyou
(589 posts)10. I think the distance is way off in this post but I think it happened exactly as was it was reported
The only difference was that Michael Brown didn't charge Wilson at all
He had been shot and tried to run away and when Wilson yelled for him to stop
he did stop , probably the 20 or 25 feet away.
Michael Brown was doing what he thought Wilson was telling him to do
in those few seconds before he opened fire.
Michael Brown was shot with a handgun going off right near his ears .
The shot was amplified because it was inside a car and his head
was inside or at least right next to the open window while they were struggling.
His ears were ringing and he couldn't hear really well.
Wilson panicked and just opened fire on him thinking he wasn't following his commands.
If Wilson didn't panic Mr Brown would be alive today

Indeed! I practice regularly with a MP9 ...accuracy drops off considerably after 10 yards...

That there are no police reports released is that facts do not fit the police narrative.

Also the trees in Google earth do not match the trees in the photo of the family.
