He was otherwise innocent in the eyes of the law. The police officer did in fact belong to a corrupt organization. Do you dispute those facts? Yes or no? I don't care about your life in Denver.
Or it was on his clothes which the second ME did not have access to
The officer has no history of corruption. In America we don't play the "guilt by association" game.
The cop is also innocent right now. Constitution and all that. You've declared him guilty and Brown innocent. That's all well and good, but why don't we let the justice system decide?
There has been corruption in our Federal government, among some elected reps, and some employees. By your logic, everyone in the Federal government is guilty of something.
Judging by the video footage of the strong arm robbery it looks like the victim and the witness were a little corrupt too.

And yet, the organization which represents him does. That makes their reports as inadmissible as the friend's statement.
We are. I am guilty of retiring. Now I am guilty of living in the mountains and doing whatever I damn well please.

What evidence do you have that he had his hands up?
THen why would the shots be on the inside of teh bicep and the palm? Seems more likely to be from a guy down on his belly, propped on his elbows with his hands up. When I run my arms cross to the center of my body with my elbows pointing out more than my hands.
Also everyone seems to be ignoring the shot that went through his eye, out of teh bottom of his jaw and into his collar bone. That cant happen standing up.
I read it in the news reports.
What evidence do you have that he didn't have his hands up?
Fill us in.
That isn't what happened, so you are speaking nonsense.
Do you not know the evidence concerning him too?Were they now? When is the arrest for Dorian Johnson? That's right. It isn't.
What is 'wrong' with them releasing the video is that it destroys that image of the cute soft puppy that those invested in making this a violent racial scene (and lets be clear...there are a LOT of 'they' and 'they' are in the media, on this site, out in the streets...'they' are white and black) tried to depict the victim as. It completely destroys the mental image they were trying to create that has people believing the unopposed visual that once there was this poor gentle kid who went to school and loved his mama and was going to go to college and cure polio...and the poor innocent tender little guy was just minding his own business when a eeeevil police man pulled up next to him and then tried to drag a 6'4"300 pound plus man onto his lap in the drivers seat through the drivers window and when that failed he got angry and came out of his car with his weapon drawn and executed the poor guy while he was on his knees with his hands up beggin the lawd please but no, the evil police man shot him from behind. Or...in front. Or...well...somewhere...you know...eyewitness accounts all are different. They DONT want you to see a guy who only moments before the incident committed a violent act of strong armed robbery and was capable of throwing around people not because they were harassing him but because they were trying to prevent him from robbing them.What was so wrong with releasing the video of Brown involved in a strong arm robbery after days of media coverage depicting Brown as this saintly "gentle giant". Where countless reports in the media reporting he was shot in the back by a white cop? Or other eyewitness accounts that stated he had surrendered and the white cop ruthlessly gunned him down. This became the clarion call for the race baiters like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and social welfare groups to ratchet up the rhetoric and whip the people into a frenzy on the basis of what appears to be lies as evidence is collected and forensics experts have a chance to do their job. The only people who had a problem with the video being released are those who wanted the story of Brown to be a "gentle giant" shot in the back by a white cop to be true. The release of the video was important to show the mindset of Brown and his disrespect for laws and his willingness to use his size to intimidate and rough people up and to force the media to take accountability for their feckless coverage of the incident.
The best thing that could have happened was for the friend of the officer to give his account over the radio early on.
It was because of that account that sent others not associated with the police department in Ferguson to study the coverage of witnesses loading coverage onto social media. It is in one of those videos loaded that the account of a witness in the background just minutes after the shooting occurred giving an account of what he saw just happen to match the officer's account. And mind you this is before any media or race baiter or the police department video release of the robbery involving Brown to taint their account in any way. It isn't hard to believe that others in the area share the same account. Currently, 57% of the people in the area believe the cop is guilty of wrongdoing. 43% do not.
That is another weird thing about this second autopsy. When that autopsy was conducted Brown had already been embalmed and prepped for burial. How thoroughly was the body cleaned before that second autopsy?
Or it was on his clothes which the second ME did not have access to
You have more information than I've seen - you know the sequence of shots and the stature/position of the "victim" during each?
Nonsense. Do some research on the US justice system before making such ridiculous statements.
The contradictions between the complaint and the depositions apparently are what prompted the prosecutor to drop the “property damage” allegation. The prosecutor also dropped a felony charge of assault on an officer that had been lodged more than a year after the incident and shortly after Davis filed his civil suit.
Davis suggested in his testimony that if the police really thought he had assaulted an officer he would have been charged back when he was jailed.
“They would have filed those charges right then and there, because that’s a major felony,” he noted.
Indisputable evidence of what transpired in the cell might have been provided by a surveillance camera, but it turned out that the VHS video was recorded at 32 times normal speed.
The bungling of the crime statistics was the latest black eye on the Ferguson Police Department, which has been sued twice in federal court for alleged civil rights violations since 2008, court records show. One case was dismissed and a ruling on the other is pending. A civil suit was also filed against the department stemming from a 2009 incident in which a resident was charged with destruction of property because he bled on the uniforms of officers who allegedly beat him, the Daily Beast reported. Arguments in that case are scheduled for December.
Lmao, you're saying the Ferguson PD has no history of corruption? You sure about that or do I need to post the links again?
Let's start with the fact that the organization seems to enjoy beating suspects:
The Day Ferguson Cops Were Caught in a Bloody Lie - The Daily Beast
The fact that it cooks the numbers on its misconduct allegations:
Before Mike Brown Shooting, Ferguson Police Department Had History Of Misconduct Allegations
Then there are the constant and recorded threats by police to reports. The fact that they've released supposedly damning information only to later claim it is not relevant to the shooting itself etc. Yeah, this department is corrupt, that it's protecting one of their own is no shock.
Charging the Police officer with your hands up is a bit of a contradiction.According to a cell phone recording he turned back towards the officer and ran towards him.
Unlikely.You weren't there, Mr. Excon, so you don't know any more than I know, And you could know a lot less.
My sources might be more accurate than your sources.
Only if just one of many wrong things are done.In the long run, only the decision of a court will matter in this case.
What else was he engaged in?
I've heard all these same comments and complaints about the law before - time and again. Hardly something 'only found in Ferguson'. I've been around for while.
