The Ferguson grand jury is expected to make an announcement today about whether Officer Darren Wilson will be indicted for fatally shooting Michael Brown back in August. Brown family attorney Benjamin Crump was on MSNBC earlier this afternoon talking about the impending decision, and Joy Reid asked him exactly what the family is planning if Wilson is not indicted.
She first asked if there’s been any official communication between law enforcement or government officials and the Brown family. Crump said there has been “none whatsoever” and that it’s obviously painful for them to have to wait like this for an announcement.
As for what their next step might be, Crump laid out the following options:
“If there’s no indictment, the federal government is investigating the matter, so they will want to know if there’s any federal charges, but if not then the only remedy they will have left is a legal civil matter, and so we’re going to explore every legal avenue to get them some sense of justice.”
Watch the video below, via MSNBC:

Is that the same Brown ‘family’ where the parents have different surnames?
The same Brown family that are ‘mourning’ by jetting around the country and giving speeches at the UN?
Your legal avenue is a dead end.
It’s going to be 35 degrees, 65% humid with a 10 mph wind in Ferguson tonight, so windchill around 24.
Pants up!
They’ll be left with trying to get a civil judgement against Wilson. Which means they can sue Wilson for all he’s worth. (not much considering what most cops make)
Translation: If there is no indictment, we will harass Office Wilson.
Hose down the streets and let it ice over.
there IS no golden goose on this one.!
Wilson should strike first. Seeing as how the kids was a minor, the parents are liable for Wilson’s injuries and personal losses stemming from the incident.
OMGosh, that's funny!! LOLOL.
Your son was a Thug. He attacked a cop, struggled for the gun and got shot. Deal with it.
Shoulda raised him to follow the law rather than attack policemen.
This tragic event has turned into a circus.
IF this whole event went down EXACTLY as per the police and real witnesses say it did, but the officer was black, would this even have been an issue ?
Fire departments need to move in and spray a high altitude fine mist over the area.
I hope the fire department sprays protesters with fire hoses.
That ought to put a chill on the festivities.
“...explore every legal avenue...”
...to keep the fifteen minutes going, and to avoid admitting that Dindu Nuffins was a worthless thug.
Well, they’ve already go their bread.....
