Word is the grand jury convenes Wednesday. http://time.com/3144915/ferguson-michael-brown-grand-july/

“Members of the jury, let me run thru some indisputable facts:
- Brown had openly robbed a store and physically threatened (arguably assaulting) the clerk. See store security video.
- Brown was, minutes later, approached by police for odd behavior (walking down middle of active street). See police car dash cam.
- Wilson suffered a broken eye socket during their confrontation. See doctor’s report.
- Brown was shot by Wilson FOUR TIMES in the ARM. See coroner’s report.
- Brown was _subsequently_ shot by Wilson TWICE in the head. See coroner’s report.
Defense submits that there is no sane & rational interpretation of these facts which does not conclude Officer Wilson was in genuine fear for his life, and that the only way to preserve his life was lethal force, numerous other options having been tried.”

Be ready for widespread rioting tomorrow. (Might not happen, just as Zimmerman’s acquittal failed to stir significant protests...but then again, the LA cops’ acquittals sparked huge riots. Prep accordingly.)

There is no police car dash cam video. The Ferguson PD purchased two dashcams last year, but did not have the money in the city budget to have them installed.

I hope they riot for the world to see what kind of useless thugs they are.

Your scenario is exactly why Angela Corey did not convene a grand jury in the Zimmerman case.
