FERGUSON, Mo. — The family of a Missouri teenager fatally shot by police is asking the U.S. Department of Justice to oversee a second autopsy.
The family's attorney, Ben Crump, told The Associated Press that funeral arrangements for 18-year-old Michael Brown are on hold until a second autopsy can be performed.
Crump said he was in the process Thursday of making a formal request to the Justice Department. He says a second autopsy overseen by the federal agency would better ensure objectivity.
The St. Louis County Medical Examiner's office performed a preliminary autopsy Sunday. Brown was killed Saturday in Ferguson, sparking racial tension and protests in the St. Louis suburb, including some that have turned violent.

Right now, the Just -Us Dept is about as trustworthy as Dan Rather.
Sorry, but Holder has sh *t on the dinner plate.
Do it over until you get it right
How about an exam on the officer’s beaten, swollen, face?
Two options here:
Crump has seen the results of the 1st autopsy and doesn’t like the results; or,
Crump just trying to create the impression of corruption to keep his rioters agitated and pre-spin?
OK:
I’d request a second autopsy as well.
You want to make sure to count all of those bullet holes.
Yeah, a first autopsy for a shooting should be adequate unless something isn’t adding up with the witness accounts.
I have a feeling that “hands in the air” google search counts will outnumber “stand your ground” counts pretty soon.
Where is this from? Is this to suggest that the dead guy might have been involved in that assault? Sources,please!
This is also to stretch this shooting incident out longer, in order to keep the pot stirring closer to the November mid-term election. They will try to play this out as long as possible. This 2nd autopsy buys them another week, and mark my words, the day of the funeral, a week from now, will start up another whole slew of rioting, further prolonging the agitation into September and beyond.
Democrats will lose big in November, so they NEED a race war. A Justice Department autopsy would be more bogus than the CIA autopsy of JFK.
Whassamatta U? The first one didn’t turn out like they wanted it?
How does the federal government get authority here?
It’s the “Never Let A Good Crisis Go To Waste” Clause of the Constitution.
Ahh.
