A St. Louis County grand jury has completed deliberations in the case of Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, whose fatal shooting of an unarmed black teen in August touched off weeks of sometimes violent protests, multiple media outlets reported Monday.CNN and The Washington Post reported that prosecutor Robert McCulloch will announce later Monday whether Wilson, 28, will face charges in the death of Michael Brown, 18, on a Ferguson street Aug. 9.

Seems that Is the intention.Oh great, an announcement on a decision being made, another announcement on what that decision is later....Hey, maybe we can break the record for the amount of incremental threads posted on one day.....:lol:
On issue I mean seriously, don't these people know that doing it like this is just building the anticipation, and will make the reaction worse?
delaying the announcement means he's probably not indicted.

Either way isn't the situation so ****ed that somebody will blow?
If he skates, there's going to be bad feelings in one camp, and if he's charged, well.....?
Why is nothing ever resolved when it come to race and crime,. I mean even OJ is still and issue divided almost exclusively along racial lines, the Florida stand your ground shooting the same...
Is it because the judicial system seems to be ****ed or because simply no one trusts anyone anymore?

We are in the "at least" 48 period after the decision.
I know of at least one Law Enforcement agency that was told what the GJ decision was Saturday so they can be prepared.
I doubt that it is any different for any other LE Agency.
So.. Is the claim they reached a decision on Friday and just didn't make it public?
So... anyone have an over/under bet on how quickly there will be riots in Ferguson (and elsewhere?)
By what St.Louis already released as agreed to ~ A 48 hour notification before public release.
If a decision comes Friday, prosecutors are expected to provide law enforcement with 48 hours notice before making a public announcement, possibly on Sunday.

You don't have to believe me, but a LE agency that I know of received notice Saturday.They wont do that at this point I don't think. The schools have closed for the week. They will want to go ahead and get it over with to so that all can be said and done by the holiday. I wouldn't be surprised if they waited till morning. Seems like riots would be a bit less intense and easier to handle during daylight hours. Could be wrong.
Yes, I know that was the original intent.. I think they may have chucked that agreement, though. With many agencies reporting no decision was made and the GJ would reconvene today to continue "deliberations". I certainly could be wrong, but I havent' yet seen any evidence indicating so.
