In reply to the discussion: Police Officer in Ferguson Is Said to Recount a Struggle [View all]Agalbraith
(52 posts)Is it likely that a police officer could reach out of his SUV window with his left hand and grab a 6'3" 290 lb football player by the neck and drag him in through the window? No. Particularly if one considers that none of the autopsies done have mentioned the damage that doing so would have caused to the neck.
Is it likely that an experienced officer would WANT to drag someone through the SUV window and give that person easy reach access to the officers duty belt and gun while having ZERO control over the person's hands? No. That would be the LAST thing an experienced officer would do.
Is it plausible that Michael Brown somehow attacked the officer and reached for his gun... hmmm... thats a tough one. We dont know exactly what his actions were. We DO know that both sides of this story are claiming that a scuffle at the SUV door did indeed happen. And certainly the findings reported in this story support that Michael Brown, for whatever undetermined reason, did indeed have at least his hands inside the police SUV.
now... if its not very likely that the police officer would WANT to drag Michael Brown through the window or would even be capable of doing so... one must start to look for other explanations.
