Listening to what they provided I heard 11 shots also. The coroner already confirmed that Brown had been shot in the front 6 times so there's really no use going over which direction Brown was facing when this happened.
PS EDIT: I've got a feeling that that "friend" that the person was chatting with was either A: more than just a friend or B: (more likely) That "friend" wasn't really a friend but one of those porn cam girls.

The first set of shots equaled to 6. The second set equaled to 5.
What this tells me is that Brown was indeed moving forward. My reasoning for this is simple for anyone with any understanding of shooting a gun. It is much easier to hit a target that is not moving than it is to hit a target that is moving. Since Brown was only hit 6 times according to the coroner that means that the officer was shooting at a moving target. Even assuming that Brown was the claimed 30ft away my 9 year old son could have hit him at least 10 out of the 11 shots fired if he was standing still. I would expect even a half assed trained adult could have hit all 11 times if the target was not moving. So the only logical conclusion is that Brown was indeed moving towards the cop.
There is of course one other explanation, but quite frankly it borders on conspiracy theory and I hate those, besides it wouldn't hold up either.

Good thing I didn't say he was shot in the back.
Wilson shot AT Brown's back.
Also, why are you claiming the witnesses lied? If they thought he got shot in the back, then that's what they thought. It doesn't mean they were trying to deceive anyone.
It made me think they cut out the next section of the audio, where he asks the girl if she is 18.Anyone else disturbed by the creepiness of the recording owner's voice in the video? Monotone; sounds like he's reading a script...poorly, I might add.
I'm still curious to see what the FBI concludes with the authenticity of the recording. Coming out this late in the game, missing the initial shot that happened in the car, and the guy's voice sounding so staged really makes me wonder if this recording is even worthy of debate.
Dorian Johnson absolutely lied.
He was THERE.
No the Car door didn't " accidentally " get pushed back at the Police officer.
No, Michael Brown didn't get shot in the back. No, he didn't " fall to his knees and surrender with his hands up ".
No, the Police officer didn't " grab Brown's neck and pull him into the Car.
Read my post above and compare it to the four eye-witness accounts of what they saw and heard.
The audio is perfectly consistent with the witness accounts.
11 Shots in 5 seconds.
Short pause between 6 and the other five. Likely Brown was still coming at him.
Just more evidence.
Sounds to me like he's reading a script.
Sounds to me like he's reading a script.
Sounds to me like he is talking to an internet stripper.
Or just as likely that he was lying on the ground with blood seeping out of multiple bullet wounds, eh?
How can anyone really know if they weren't an eyewitness?
And recording it? Why?
I'm kind of ashamed to admit this but I have very little knowledge of how online video strippers work. Do you actually talk to them like on Skype?
Here's just the part with the shots.
It sure sounds to me like "You. Are. Pretty. You're so fine. Just going on some of your videos..."
To my ear he's either reading or talking while he types........
.............or he's reading what someone is typing to him and it's his cam show!!!
So, your "plausible" alternate scenario would be that at least 5 of the first 6 shots missed Brown, Brown then lay on the ground surrendering, and Wilson moved closer and shot him 5 more times, all hits, but the majority into Brown's right arm, and the shot into the top of his head is explained how?

He's hitting on someone who he thinks is hot and has videos. I just figure that he comes off as phony because he's their customer.
My guess is that there is accompanying video to this audio that couldn't be shown on CNN. :lol:

in watching the MSNBC interview of the various eye witnesses, i hear some say that the deceased was holding his arms up in the manner of surrender (once turned around, facing the officer). however, the fellow who did not see anything until the deceased had turned to face the shooter indicated the deceased was holding his arm while bowed over - NOT in a form of surrender
other than that, there seemed to be significant consistency between their observations
In this scenario, those who claim that Brown went to the ground to surrender with his hands up may simply have seen Brown wounded and with arms extended hitting the ground. Then, when Brown rises, onto his knees and perhaps higher, he may still have appeared capable of doing harm to the officer and he fired the remainder of the shots. It's possible Wilson told him to stay on the ground and Brown didn't - considering the struggle for the officer's gun that reportedly took place earlier and the size and strength of Brown - Wilson would have feared for his life if Brown was trying to rise and come at him again.
Except you already offered your 'opinion'...that it is as likely he was lying down seeping blood as anything else. Your lack of knowledge or first hand experience didnt stop you from presenting a countering opinion.Fine. Now we know what may or may not have happened according to you. :roll:
Me, I'm going to wait until the courts issue their opinions then I'm going to issue my opinion.
If I'm still around after that happens.
Attorney: New audio reveals pause in gunfire when Michael Brown was shot
By Holly Yan, CNNLawyer: Audio shows 11 shots when Michael Brown killed - CNN.com
updated 12:36 AM EDT, Tue August 26, 2014
[...]
In the recording, a quick series of shots can be heard, followed by a pause and then another quick succession of shots.
"I personally heard at least 11" shots, the man's attorney, Lopa Blumenthal, told CNN's Don Lemon.
The man, who asked that his identity not be revealed, lives near the site of the shooting and was close enough to have heard the gunshots, Blumenthal said.
He was speaking to a friend on a video chat service and happened to be recording the conversation at the same time Brown was shot, Blumenthal said.

This really could (operative word here being could) somewhat fit the story Johnson provided. The officer shot at Brown while he was running away. Brown stopped and turned around, walking or running towards the officer = the pause. Then for some reason, which is unknown at this time, the officer shot 5 or more times again killing Brown.
