Don Lemon reports that Wilson did go to the hospital with a swollen face, but x-rays came back negative on a broken or torn eye socket.

HIPAA violation! If he does not have specific authorization, he cannot go about sharing protected health information. He needs to be sued now.
Turns out it wasn't broken, just bruised so bad they thought it was broken, looking at the x-ray.
Oh, then everything is OK. It permissible to punch an officer in the face as ling as you don’t break bones.
Doctors said we’ll run off that bridge when we get there..
I wonder if Officer Wilson beat himself about the face and shoulders with his handheld mike. That might explain his injuries. Especially to the rioters er excuse me Peaceful Demonstrators.
Just an allergic reaction to fist.
How dare they besmirch the name of a great band like that.
Mosquito Bite was it ?
He and his family need to move to a 95.4% non-minority community at Eric Holder’s expense.
Sherman Hemsley’s favorite.
that would be my county and area then.
Because he's BLACK and if you don't subscribe to what HE BELIEVES then you're a RACIST. /s
Sue the hospital.
Send him an invite!
Seriously, there is a website called “walking to freedom”,
where people can get on and extol the virtues of their
state, county, city, etc.
Did the hospital release the records? Doubtful.
My first thought as well. This is the first I’ve seen of anyone on TV news actually recognizing the fact that Wilson was roughed up. (Which may or may not mean it is the first, since I only watch TV news if linked to it.)
If I were Wilson’s lawyer, at this point I would be doing everything I legally could to confuse the media version of what actually happened. If the media version is unified — everyone saying Brown was gunned down like a dog, for instance — the witnesses whose testimony is contrary to that version but fits with the evidence are likely to be telling the truth. So there is a sense where the potential defense lawyer doesn’t care what they’re saying, so long as it’s eight miles from reality.
Once the media version starts getting close to the truth, that’s when I as a lawyer would start to get worried about my witnesses being accused of just picking up and passing on a version of things someone else made up. What a lawyer can do about that, I dunno.
if the 300 pound man rushing at you is a member of a recognized grievance group, you are supposed to think in a split second that your life is destroyed if you defend yourself. In other words, you don’t shoot and take other actions to defend yourself, because of fears of being charged with racism as you make a split second decision as to whether to save yourself or not.
Don Lemon is reporting about the officers PRIVATE health information - but were supposed to ignore everything the St Swisher Sweets was doing that day.
The general rule is, if release of information supports a liberal cause or the liberal talking points, or a liberal meme about an incident, then the information can be released and the laws regulating medical information be damned.
The related rule is that conservatives are bound by the laws, but not liberals.
I wish I could say this was just sarcasm on my part.
You know, that is a great idea. Laws have very stiff penalties for disclosing protected health information. The cop should sue the living daylights out of CNN and that hosebag reporter.
