Michael Brown was shot in the head and chest multiple times, according to Mary Case, the St. Louis County medical examiner.
While Case declined to comment further, citing the ongoing investigation into Brown’s death, another person familiar with the county’s investigation told The Washington Post that Brown had between six and eight gunshot wounds and was shot from the front.
In addition, Brown had marijuana in his system when he was shot and killed by a police officer on Aug. 9 in Ferguson, according to this person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation.
The report from Case’s office was released to the St. Louis County prosecutor’s office on Friday night but has not been made public. This report is part of the county’s official investigation into the shooting, but it is one of three autopsies being conducted.
Brown’s family and attorneys also requested its own autopsy, which was carried out by Michael Baden, a medical examiner who released preliminary details from his review on Monday.
In anticipation that Brown would be potentially vilified by the results of the drug test, conduct as a routine part of the autopsy, protesters have consistently insisted that Officer Wilson should be required to submit one as well.
“What was in the system of that cop when he was pumping bullets into that boy’s body?” asked a protest leader, shouting into a megaphone, during a rally on Friday afternoon.
Residents and protesters have noted that allegations of marijuana use have been used in the past by some in an attempt to disparage the character of shooting victims, including in the Trayvon Martin case.

Bully, druggie, and his friends are looters. Yep, that’s charming.
they found drugs in his system...
that’s a good excuse for another night of rioting and mayhem...
I wouldnt be surprised if they find more drugs in his system(Or just not say anything) the fact that he was able to hold off four shots to the arm tells me he was either on something at the time or was bum rushing the cop on pure adrenaline
Huh? So being high or drunk absolves you of any consequences from your actions? And yes the cop should be post incident drug tested, just like any other employee of any company involved in a workplace injury or fatality.
Any excuse for a par-taaaaaaay.
A dopehead and a thug.
The country is a better place with him planted six feet under. I’d give the cop a medal.
might as well
“No Pot, No Peace” will be the mantra as the Libertarians join in.
Drugged up!!! WOW!! Color me SHOCKED!!!! I thought it would be PCP since he was SO AGRESSIVE!
The fictional “gentle giant” (who writes this tripe) needed those stollen . cigarillos to wrap his weed. He was oblivious to four gunshots to his arm. That’s not normal.
so he;s a druggie and a thief and a thug and yet this administration would rather attack cops or try to hide the evidence of this thug.
Shall we see another press conference by the Dems , oh sorry by the family to keep this going?
But...but...but....only the police should have guns because they know what they’re doing; they’re trained in using them properly. Guess THAT myth went down in flames (literally).
You and I would but some think the cop should be hung
But I thought he was surrendering. That’s what his race baiting attorney says. “Expert” witnesses can always be wrong or their results misinterpreted to promote a theory. They’re saying him being shot in the head was a sign he was surrendering. It could also mean he was shot 5 times while running at the officer and was in the process of falling as he came towards him.
Lower shots could have been warning only to injure. Others, the kill shots as he continued toward police, JMO. I think I heard whitness say shots weren’t consecutive.

Question:
The story from the cops friend is the first shot went off in the car when the fought for the gun..
So were is the first round?...
In the car or in Brown with a close up power burn.
That first round if it did go off in the car and is in the car or is in Brown with a close up power burn on Brown would confirm a lot
Good grief. Look at the Facebook, etc. pictures of him posted. Anyone who has a clue as to what 'stoned' looks like can see it on his face.
Not to mention the one with the wad of cash in his mouth, pointing a gun at the camera. You could see his buddy.... through the wreaths of smoke between them.
