Ferguson, Missouri (CNN) -- An independent autopsy into the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, provides "ample" evidence to support the arrest of the police officer who shot him, family attorney Daryl Parks said Monday at a news conference.

Parks was particularly concerned about gunshots that medical examiners hired by the family indicate came from behind and above.

"Why would he be shot in the very top of his head, a 6-foot-4 man?" Parks asked. "Makes no sense."

The autopsy could support witnesses' suggestions that Brown was holding his hands up in the air, said Shawn Purcell, who assisted in the autopsy. But other scenarios are possible, said Dr. Michael Baden, who supervised the inquiry.

no matter the results the attorney would say it is enough.

The “family lawyers” are looking for the payday FL law prevented. (remember these are the same lawyers the “family” used in that case.)

this is not about justice, this is about destruction and bleeding tv ratings.

Yes he is and I’m nearly as bad. Should have been “took” the case pro bono instead of didn’t take.

The commie’s are behind the riots, the outrage. The actions are by the quick response team CPUSA/A.N.S.W.E.R.

IF I am correct, which I believe I am this is an organization that is anti-American, and a division of an International effort to subject NOT ONLY the United States of America, but the World to their perspective, thus governance, therefore an insurgent operation, and their actions are therefore a declaration of war.

I believe one fights ones enemies rather than absorb their illegal, destructive, warring actions into ones legal system as though they are a legitimate home grown protest of grievance. They are not. They have to be addressed as the enemies of this Nation that they are.

Probably because the guy was coming at him and being 6'4" he thought that a few well aimed punches and he - the officer - was gonna be out cold with the other guy in possession of his gun.

In which case he was gonna be out cold permanently.

A police officer friend told me once about an Arizona DPS officer who emptied his clip into an escapee with the last bullet going through his hand which was on the guy's chest trying to stop him, even though he had already taken 5 bullets. The last one did the job at the expense of the highway patrolman's hand.

But at least he wasn't dead.

And that guy was unarmed as well. But he kept coming, and was a similar size.

The more I hear of this case the less I think the cop has anything to worry about in a real court.

But since the "president" we elected is a thug, the likely court will be run by a Kangaroo.

they are going to riot all over the country over this.

Yep - Los Angeles never likes to be left out of these scenarios. There were news reports of "hundreds" demonstrating someplace in downtown L.A. over the weekend. I give it a couple or three days at most.

I had read earlier that the initial autopsy claimed all shots were from the front...

Three bullet wounds in the arm would make it pretty damn impossible for someone to hold up his arms.

How is a person's head and body oriented when he's charging you to tackle you to the ground?

Gentle giant randomly stopped and shot in the back....

Aggressive giant leaving scene of robbery interprets minor encounter with police as possible apprehension, fight ensues, is shot in the front.

What part of the original narrative (dictated by his robbery accomplice of all people) has turned out to be true?

Time to quit looting and let the justice system run its normal course.

♫And his hunger burns
so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal
and he learns how to fight
In Ferguson

Then one night in arrogance
a young man breaks away
He robs a store, shoves a clerk,
hits a cop, but he don't get far
And his mama calls Al Sharpton

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
face down on the street with a stolen cigar in his hand
In Ferguson

As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Ferguson mornin',
another little baby child is born
In Ferguson

In Holder’s world, “inconclusive” equals a conviction, unfortunately.

Unless it was the same bullet, first hitting the forearm, then upper arm.
