Wilson is guilty of bad police work, not murder. [View all]

Perhaps negligent homicide.

Missouri has very loose laws about when a cop can use deadly force. In truth, officer Wilson should not have confronted him after the initial fight, until he had back up.

Leaving Brown s body on the ground for four hours was abomidable.

The grand jury process was a joke. Even Nancy Grace says she has never seen a grand jury operate on the manner they did.
