Nine whites and three blacks will decide whether to charge a Missouri cop with killing 18-year-old Michael Brown.

The breakdown of the St. Louis County grand jury weighing evidence against Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson was released Friday by a state court judge at the request of Bloomberg News.

Wilson is white. Brown was black. And outrage over the unarmed teen’s killing two weeks ago fueled violent demonstrations and scattered looting in Ferguson.

While Ferguson is a mostly African-American suburb, the grand jurors were selected from a countywide pool of registered voters.

St. Louis County, which does not include the city of St. Louis, is about 23% African-American, according to U.S. Census figures.

I’m sure if he’s not indicted, the agitators will sue, claiming racial imbalance.

Should the Ferguson Prosecutor Be Removed?

Please read article. Most in STL have faith that McCulloch will be fair, the only ones that think he won’t be are the ones that think Mike Brown was murdered by a cop.

The riot pie?
Maybe there to suggest the mother of Brown pay the store owner damages for his loss due to her son?
Are the parents going to offer to pay for the medical bills of officer Wilson due to her son?

Will she insist Brown’s juvenile record gets out there?

But Wilson knows it is BS and if he is patient and gets the right backing he could end up suing that city for millions for loss of livelihood and medical damages.

This is just idiocy. All prosecutors are "close" to the police. They receive the cases they prosecute from the police and policeman are frequently among their witnesses.

What these people really mean is they want that white guy from a police family off the case.
