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 was the last Redskins game that will be watched in my home. I won’t support this kind of nonsense any longer. With that goes the annual round of NFL branded gifts given at Christmas and no access to any commercials so no products bought from those either.
While I am at it, why hasn’t the other thief from the Quicky Mart been arrested??? That PoS is granting interviews. Po-po, get your shite together and take your town back from Neanderthals

I’d say he had a successful career, and was lucky to have made it through without having to shoot anyone, or being shot himself...especially in Detroit.

Never forget Obama’s political career was born in the living room of a terrorist who tried to start a race war. He’s not on cruise control just riding out his last term. The gov and the pres were spinning the same fake narrative from the very beginning which is odd for a supposedly spontaneous event, I guess it is liberal intuition.

It seems that if Brown had suffered relatively serious injuries like this, it would have been mentioned in a police statement within a day or two, in order to put the shooting into the context of an attack on an officer. Why have the police been silent when it would be to their advantage to get this out? This alone makes we waiting for official confirmation of this report.

The injury isn’t immediately known.

HIPAA may not have allowed this to be disclosed. And - as with other evidence - Eric Holder may have been telling people not to disclose even records they could disclose, because doing so would anger the ferals. Showing that the “victim” beat somebody up was immediately called “character assassination”, after all, when the strong-arm robbery was finally disclosed against Holder’s urging...

Because either the info was made available and those reporting didn’t like it contradicting their narrative, or it was withheld until things started to settle down enough for uncomfortable objective facts to be addressed properly.

I’ve learned that with some people, you just don’t tell ‘em some things when they’re hysterical - it only serves to give them something else to bash you with. I mean, it’s really amazing how some can get really abusive with ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING, you say. You sometimes have to wait before truth will be handled with dignity & respect.

You shoot untill the aggressive actions stop...

...which of course would not happen until the perp was wounded or killed...or is there a third option...?

I had this happen to me when I was 27, when a hoodlum assaulted e with a wood cane that hit me car, broke off, and then hit e in the face.

I was able to chase the individual down and hold him until Police arrived.

Hurt like a son of a gun.

Dangnabbit. It seems you are correct.

Well, just proves that the info is being withheld, at least by the media.

I’m still searching for the proper one. If I find it I will ping you.

Good job of catching that. I was up until 3am following the Ferguson situation, posting, and searching for source documents. I really screwed up.

A bit of thought on this...

LEO’s left eye was damaged and not functioning normally.
LEO is right handed.
Perp had wounds / shots on his right side.

Last I was taught (admittedly, hunting classes in the 70s), you line-up the weapon under your dominant eye, track the target ^with both eyes open^ and squeeze the trigger.

The damaged eye may have caused a left-ward (over) compensation for LEO Wilson; that may explain the number of wounds to the perp’s right side.

An additional scenario is that LEO “ran the ladder” on the perp to “stop” him; starting low (leg region) and ending at center mass. Given the number of perforations, the perp may have (a) stumbled forward, or; (b) started to collapse, presenting his head in the COM target area.

Many times officers began CPR after shooting individual.

VERY BAD PRACTICE....too many infectious diseases for cops to give CPR. Secure the suspect, call for backup, THEN call EMT is proper procedure. I teach my students to NEVER touch the body if it is a good shoot.....

Now if the guy was a real jerk, you COULD give CPR real quick in order to get all the blood out of his body before EMT arrives....but then again, there is the issue with infectious diseases in the blood to begin with.

ANYWAYS....like Rule number 4: NEVER get out of the boat (in this case...never get in contact with someone elses blood)!

after the Zimmerman pictures were released (not by the authorities I believe and after prosecutor Corey actually tried to hide the evidence apparently) the for profit mob was screaming fakes fakes fakes.

Yep, exactly. "He did it to himself"... That will be their new mantra if they aren't saying it already. I think this is just more proof that the Regime was completely involved in exacerbating this to draw attention away from the border. Blacks were really going nuts over all the attention paid to illegals, and what better way to draw them back to the Democraps than a "racist attack".

Just think: This kind of stuff between cops and blacks goes on every single day and night, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, month after month, year after year...Black kid commits crime, black kid attempts to attack/kill cop, black kid gets killed. Since this story broke I would bet 20 such cases have happened nation wide. Yet this case gets all this attention? People inexplicably riot and loot?

Now just where did they get the info that the kid was shot execution style as if the cop was some kind of KKK guy? Where? Where??

....”allowing a week of rioting before releasing key information like this is not helpful”.....

Baloney!....Investigations are not done like ordering McDonald Hamburgers.

And who “allowed” the rioting? Nobody put a gun to these peoples head to go into the streets BEFORE the Investigation and facts were compiled.

It’s evident no matter what the Investigation shows....they’ve declared what they want is the cop arrested. ..and facts of the case are immaterial to most.

He says he had been able to work under Chief Craig. For the most part, people in Detroit actually like their cops these days.

I heard a black female on Dr. Drew last night say that Mike Brown was afraid, and so he had a right to defend himself.

Well, the officer did tell him to get on the sidewalk. That would inspire terror in anyone. /s
