Lawyer: Friend confirms that he and shooting victim had robbed convenience store
August 15, 2014 18:11 GMT
FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) -- The friend who was with Michael Brown when he was shot and killed by a police officer near St. Louis over the weekend is reportedly confirming that he and Brown had taken part in the theft of cigars from a convenience store that day.
That word comes from the attorney for Dorian Johnson, speaking to MSNBC. Police in Ferguson had earlier announced that Brown was suspected of taking cigars from the convenience store in what was described as a "strong-arm robbery.

My mistake. Normally I’d recognize the sarcasm, but considering some of the stuff I’ve been reading in some of these threads, I took the bait.
Wow, the press “availability” just concluded with Brown’s father and cousin was telling. It was mainly along the lines of, “Don’t believe what they’re telling you!” mixed with, “More stuff is going to come out about Michael. We know he wasn’t perfect!”
I would be surprised if this was the first time that Brown strong armed someone to take what he wanted.
In the video he looks very self assured and comfortable with his theft and intimidation of the owner.
He comes across as a guy who knew the ropes and how to go about using his size and hulking presence to intimidate and get his way.
Sticking a pack of cigars in your pants and walking out is a lot different than pushing around a man half your size and taking them by force.
——The friend-—
The accomplice in the strong arm robbery
Strong arm......what a great term. The 6’9” giant needed no gun to strong arm the diminutive old shop keeper
This has all the stink of the Saint Trayvon of Skittles theater.
So it’s “Big Mike” now. Too bad for him, because police know it’s very hard to bring down a 300# man with a taser, so a huge person is going to get shot more often in an altercation with police.
It wasn't Iced Tea, it was Watermelon Juice. Look it up.
Mr. Obama and General Holder retracting their words in 3 ... 2 .... 1
Yeah, he was very casual with heavy handed violent behavior to an upstanding minority shop owner. THAT MEANS SOMETHING. It’s not about the blunts he stole. It’s about the evil way he did it.
I actually gave the story about the incident from the witness’s side the benefit of the doubt. It’s lost all benefit now. I think he was probably rough with the officer.
At 340lbs, I’ll have to remember that. Oh, wait, in 54 years I’ve never seen the inside of a jail cell nor even been arrested. Never mind.
I wonder if he was given immunity for admitting that. Yesterday I read that he was being housed outside Ferguson but not why.
Just a guess.
“More stuff is going to come out about Michael. We know he wasn’t perfect!”
Previously...
“We called him the gentle giant. He was a gentle giant.”
“He was never a person who liked confrontation.”
“We talked about how when you turn yourself to the Lord you feel so good - and good things come your way” “He had a more mature mind than a little boy’s mind.”
“He was funny, silly, he would make you laugh.” “Any problem going on, any situation, there wasn’t nothing that he couldn’t solve. He could bring people back together.”
“Respect how they raised him in the fact that he was a nonviolent kid.”He was never a person who liked confrontation.” His smile was going to make you smile.”
“He had never gotten into a fight in his entire life.”
Aw the poor media, their- evil white cop shoots poor defenseless little black boy narrative— just got F&^ed
Well its nice to see sometimes bad things happen to bad people.

Brown knew he had robbed the store....and no doubt likely assumed the officer knew....(which some are saying the officer didn’t know). People who are guilty cannot run from their guilt...it will dictate their perceptions.
Brown knew he had stolen just a short time prior...anybody who had done so ‘would assume’, if a cop was pulling you over, you were in deep crap.
Have they trademarked the name yet?
And another one I read,”He quit the high school football team before the first game because he didn’t want to hit anyone.”
