Took me all day to finally get caught up, thank you to all for the informative posts.
This entire situation is terrible, it's unfortunate that a young man lost his life but it's also terrible that this officers life is forever changed as well. Some go on about the chief being deceptive or lying in not giving his name in the PC yet take a witness/accomplice at his every word. Personally I feel he plays a major role in the total uproar and craziness Ferguson has become. I mean his interviews stirred the pot for sure, claiming them to be total innocents walking down the road. That's far from the truth and has destroyed his credibility as a witness IMO. Unfortunately IMO I believe there may be witnesses who saw this incident from the other side but won't come forward out of fear. I hope the truth can be discovered and can't wait until the autopsy report is released as it may shed some light.
I too am willing to change my opinion IF the evidence proves me wrong but atm I can't jump to the conclusion that Wilson shot MB for no reason while he "surrendered".
