Whoa....great point!!!
One of the eye witnesses was reported as his accomplice during the convenience store robbery.
Yes I’m sure he was a very unbiased witness
“The police report goes on to state that surveillance video from the store shows Brown and Dorian Johnson, an eyewitness to Browns death, entering the store before Brown hands the pack of Swisher Sweets to Johnson.”

Too many eyewitnesses sympathetic to the dead guy have spoken out; the cop would have been identified as such by now if he was.
This assumes that the eyewitnesses really were eyewitnesses.
Yup. In this case “witnesses” seem to be lying accomplices to the robbery/assault and people “coming forward” after the fact who were not even there and who are just lying and making things up.
Good point. They’re lying so they know better than to say “white cop” when even they know it might be a “black cop”. So, better just to say “cop shot black kid”.
