Federal Autopsy of Michael Brown Ordered As Unrest in Ferguson Rises

By RICHARD A. SERRANO, MOLLY HENNESSY-FISKE, MATT HANSEN

Citing “extraordinary circumstances” in the Aug. 9 police shooting death of unarmed teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric H. Holder Jr. has instructed Department of Justice officials to have an additional autopsy performed by a federal medical examiner after unrest in the St. Louis suburb escalated again overnight.

Meanwhile, law enforcement officials said the protester shot overnight, who is in critical condition, was shot by another protester, not by police.

Holder's decision, announced Sunday, is the latest development showing that federal investigators are conducting a far different probe than that underway by local officials into the shooting. Brown, a black 18-year-old, was shot and killed by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, and his death has touched off a week-long series of protests in the St. Louis suburb.

The new autopsy will find large entrance and small exit wounds.

It’s got to be it. Holder stepping in and ordering another autopsy is all anyone really needs to know.

Yeah, right. Like a finding remotely indicating the various toxicology in play would EVER see light of day.

The second autopsy is being made to cover up the findings of the first autopsy, and both will be kept under seal. The desired findings, manufactured for propaganda purposes, will be included in the “synopsis” of the report.

But like Barack Hussein Obama’s birth certificate, we shall never see the real documents filed at the time.

There was a lot of this kind of stuff the judge wouldn’t allow the court to hear in the Trayvon case .
Remember that?

On the other hand . . . obama wouldn’t mind seeing this elevate to black on white racial attacks across the U.S.

So, there is a good chance the truth will set the officer free, and enable obama to justify his sons doing their part in destroying America.

Eric the red sure is moving fast on this isn’t he? Wow, after stonewalling on everything else for 6 years he’s finally got a fire lit under him.

Shame he couldn’t move that Fast and Furious on the Brian Terry case. But then again when you had a hand in the murder... I’m just sayin.

Well...I’m waiting on the 8th autospy report by the U.N. just to make sure that he wasn’t eaten or raped by the cop./s

That’s a realistic observation too. We’ll see how it plays out.

I find it awfully convenient that, as evidence mounts of Brown’s nefarious life - and accidental testimony caught on video from witnesses that Brown ran TOWARDS the officer (possibly in an attack) that shadows the press version of the event... that riots and violence are increasing...

Must be getting too close to an inconvenient truth...

When this is all said and done. I have no doubt, no mater what happens at this point, the office will be fired. It is possibly he may end up in a federal prison before the end of the year.

As for the police chief he will be fired for public lack of confidence. Possibly go to prison if found involved in any type of cover up.

All the other police officers involved with the case will most likely be fired too. Call it guilty by association. Oh and if they are caught lying to a court of law, then probably some of them will go to federal prison too.

That’s how its going to play out after the FBI is done IMO. The whole world is watching now, and the PD has just opened themselves up to massive string of lawsuits with this crack down. YOU KNOW, the lawyers are licking their chops.

Bottom line is this. If it turns out this kid just ran from the cops, then the police involved are up the creek. Time will tell.

Has anyone written a vanity post that explains what most likely happened in a somewhat detailed manner based on everything that we know to date?

The body is in the possession of the county coroner. I hope he takes good photos of his work so that if new holes show up in the back of Mike Brown, we will know the feds are trying to stage a modern lynching.

The original autopsy must show something that doesn’t help the narrative,

I do....and the judge in that case was horrible.

This case will hopefully never leave the grand jury room.
