"This is not the robber you are looking for."
I’m glad you beat me to it. I was on the verge of not being able to resist.
They must think we’re as stupid as they apparently are.
When you look closely at the video this kid was Brazen about stealing....reaching over the counter to get them from behind the counter...then he drops some of them...and notices the woman who steps into frame...but he walks toward the door like it’s just a normal part of his daily “take” until the clerk catches up to him , who was behind the counter prior.
so much for all those t-shirt sales.
It always amazes me when people with absolutely no marketable job skills suddenly become experts in software and video manipulation. It’s also funny people in the same general category absolutely butcher the English language but know the proper spelling pronunciation and chemical makeup of promethazine.
Looks to me like good police work by the officer involved. He was responding to the 911 call and probably had a description of the robber(s) and saw Brown walking down the middle of the street, matching the description. So he started to interogate him and Brown got out of control.
Sadly the one that is deceased probably had an academic and sports scholarship to one of the top colleges/universities in the country. No? Geez, I wonder why.
I’d say the police had to have their story 100% verifiable before they made it public. Even now, you have these people who won’t give up their cause trying to say it’s not him. I can’t imagine if the police were actually wrong on any single count. Even though the other side has been wrong on almost every count.
But Brown didn’t know that the officer didn’t know...

Which makes it very dangerous for the cop. You’ve got someone who knows he’s guilty of a crime .... a cop has stopped him and he thinks the cop knows he’s the perp. For whatever reason (young, STUPID, thinks he’s bigger/tougher, doesn’t want his folks to know what he’s been up to - you name it) he tries to flee or fights back when he comes across weird to the cop who decides to put him in the car until he can figure out what’s going on. Once he starts fighting the cop, then MB has escalated it to a survival situation for the cop and he’s going to do what he needs to do to protect his own life.
I feel sorry for the parents who lost their child - to them, he’ll always be a ‘child’. To the cop, he was a 6’4” almost 300 lb danger to his life. The parents wanted the truth and they’ve got it .... pictures of their child committing a criminal act and robbing a store. Sometimes the TRUTH hurts. BTW, just heard someone on the radio talking about “Swisher Sweet” cigars ... what MB was stealing. These are favorites of marijuana smokers - they pull out the tobacco & replace it with weed.
I do not know about Missouri but in my state, Florida, when a person is killed during a felony, accomplices (can) be charged with the death!
Probably because they needed time to get it and authenticate it. However, I kinda wish they delayed on purpose to make fools at the media and the "eyewitnesses" who jumped to all the wrong conclusions and believed the lies.
The reason for the delay was to thoroughly proof the evidence.
I’m not a CSI, but I’m in love with Abby.
We can rest assured that every piece of clothing visible on the various robbery videos was compared and confirmed to be present on the body at the crime scene. We don’t have but one of the several videos that certainly have more crime scene clothing views.
Then there is other evidence. Given the importance of the robbery scene involved in a police shooting, the place was thoroughly observed for any evidence including fingerprints and perhaps DNA. The case was made before any of the various video and still shots were revealed.
We also don’t know what was learned in interviews with the side kick. If he was a good soldier he clammed up. But if they brought in Gibbs or perhaps Brenda Leigh he moght have cracked.
I guess the lawyer will do his best to make it into a Travon case but he will have a very hard row to hoe. Unlike Trayvon the gentle giant did not commit attempted murder but was almost certainly involved in assault and resisting arrest.
The police were probably quiet to ensure all the evidence was gathered before the agitators could intimidate witnesses and those with the evidence from destroying it.
There’s a CNN reporter on right now trying as hard as he can to twist the story against the police. Doubling down.
Has he blamed GW Bush yet?
Has Obama said this is becomes of the lack of comprehensive immigration amnesty?
Has reid blamed republicans?

“They must think were as stupid as they apparently are.”
People raised with a Robin Hood mentality generally are dumb as posts. They have enormous blind spots in their thinking that convince them they can get away with things that a person of average intelligence would never even try.
Then they get mad when they’re caught!
