Officer Darren Wilson Suffered “Orbital Blowout Fracture to Eye Socket” During Mike Brown Attack
Gateway Pundit ^ | 19 Aug 2014 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/19/2014 8:22:57 AM PDT by mandaladon

The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown. Officer Wilson clearly feared for his life during the incident that led to the shooting death of Brown. This was after Michael Brown and his accomplice Dorian Johnson robbed a local Ferguson convenience store.

Local St. Louis sources said Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket.” This comes from a source within the District Attorney’s office and confirmed by the St. Louis County Police.

“That’s why they haven’t released this before”

Nah, the feds didn’t want it released because it might be misconstrued as character assasination of a little boy on his way to a great college career.

The narrative is in trouble. Some of Brown’s early defenders are backing away. Conservatarian rocker David Draiman now says Brown may have gotten what he deserved.

Too bad those stirring up the victim class don’t care about facts. They will twist this too claim that Wilson could not properly see to aim and shoot and therefore was irresponsible and negligent when he pulled his gun.

Right, but IF residents were being harmed or threatened by the ‘gentle giant’ and law enforcement ignored the issue or backed down... well, THEN what would it be?

I mean how many ways can it be?

“I know there are protocols for all of this, but allowing a week of rioting before releasing key information like this is not helpful.”

That depends on the goals of the people with the information. If the goal is to spin this up into a county-wide or state-wide conflagration, then things are on track.

Giving a platform for the hired medical examiner to spout propaganda (”more than one shot equals excessive force”, he “could have had arms in the air”) is a deliberate move.

Gentle Giant Mike Brown suffered a superorbital blowout of his brain.

THE FOLLOWING IS SOUNDING MORE AND MORE LIKE WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, AND HAPPENED VERY FAST.

“So he said that they, you know, um, they were walking in the middle of the street and he rolled his window down and, you know, said “Come on guys out of the street.” Um, they refused to, and were yelling back and saying: “We are almost where we are going.” There was some cussing involved, um, and then he just kept rolling up and he pulled over, and I believe, at that point, he called for a backup but I am not sure. But I know he pulled up ahead of them and he was watching them and then gets the call-in that there was a strong-arm robbery, and they get the description, and he was looking at them and they got something in their hands that looks like it could be, what, you know, those cigars or whatever, so he goes in reverse back to them and tries to get out of his car and they slam his door shut violently–I think he said Michael did–then he opened his car again and tries to get out. and as he stands up, Michael just bum rushes him, just shoves him back into the car, AND PUNCHES HIM IN THE FACE, and then of course Darren grabs for his gun. Michael grabs the gun. At one point he has the gun totally turned against his hip and Darren, you know, shoves it away and the gun goes off. Well then Michael takes off with his friend and he gets about 35 feet away and, um, you know, Darren–of course protocol is to pursue–so he stands up and yells: “Freeze!” Um, Michael and his friend turn around and Michael starts taunting him: “Oh what are you going to do about it?”, you know, “You are not going to shoot me!” And then, he said, all of a sudden he just started to bum rush him. He just started coming at him full speed, and so he just started shooting, and he just kept coming. So he really thinks he was on something, um, because he just kept coming. It was unbelievable.”

Often heard recently in comments online

You forgot, "Good thing there wasn't a dog to shoot" and all of the other "Jackbooted Thug" comments that are getting tedious and boring.

In this case, it looks like a good shoot to me. A feral thug is off the street. Hopefully, Officer Wilson will be able to get some semblance of his life back, eventually.

..why are they teargassing and arresting reporters if they are in the clear?

The 'teargas' was used on the AL JAZEERA reporters who were shining their spotlights into the eyes of the police. They were asked multiple times to turn the lights off, and refused. I.E. They were being *ssholes and deserved what they got.

The reporters that were arrested were ones that were told to return to the MEDIA PEN for their own safety as there was gunfire nearby.

They were repeatedly told they would be arrested if they didn't get out of the darn street. Like the protesters and rioters, they didn't listen.

Don’t accept these “new” revelations so quickly.

This 'revelation' isn't new, it's only new to you. I knew about the broken eye socket yesterday.

Yeah, a cop is not a security guard.

A security guard is suppose to only observe and report and then call the cops. That is why they don’t carry guns.

The cops are supposed to be the last line of defense, unless you have your own means of defense.


In Texas at least, it depends on what level security guard you are. A Level 3 is licensed to carry a firearm.

“so Wilson did it to himself AFTER the illegal, racist shooting. “

Nah, he didn’t do it to himself, it was either the police chief who hit him with a baton, or possibly a TEA Party member.

I seriously doubt it.

Officer Wilson would have been quite occupied by then.

And Dorian Johnson is the primary witness that the anti-cop trolls, rioters, race hustlers, and news media used as their source for “facts.”

The police brotherhood screwed up BIGTIME when they let Angela Corey and the Lefties take down George Zimmerman without getting in their faces, and reiterating LOUDLY and STRONGLY that Zimmerman "feared for his life".

The Left learned from those events, and is now INSIDE the Blue shieldwall, hacking and slashing like the barbarian Huns. Darren Wilson's life is over, the same as George Zimmerman's - and there will be more police officers to come.

I'm not sure what the Left is up to, but it can't be good...

Apparently definition of ‘Justice’ is very different in Ebonics.
