It doesn't get any better than this.
The first, closest to the scene and most 'credible', supposedly, eyewitness to Michael Brown's innocent walking down the street assault was also in on the robbery.
Read this MSNBC story for the joke of the day: LINK

Read this MSNBC story for the joke of the day: LINK
Excerpts:
quote:
About 20 minutes before the shooting, Johnson said he saw Brown walking down the street and decided to catch up with him. The two walked and talked. That’s when Johnson says they saw the police car rolling up to them.
The officer demanded that the two “get the f—k on the sidewalk,” Johnson says. “His exact words were get the f—k on the sidewalk.”
After telling the officer that they were almost at their destination, Johnson’s house, the two continued walking. But as they did, Johnson says the officer slammed his brakes and threw his truck in reverse, nearly hitting them.
Now, in line with the officer’s driver’s side door, they could see the officer’s face. They heard him say something to the effect of, “what’d you say?” At the same time, Johnson says the officer attempted to thrust his door open but the door slammed into Brown and bounced closed. Johnson says the officer, with his left hand, grabbed Brown by the neck.

He was an accessory to a crime, can't be surprised he would be lying his arse off.

How dare you come here and attempt to degrade this hero.

It sure has changed the tone of the narrative today.
CNN has already started backing away.

I am disappointed that you dolts on this board are not seeing the bigger picture in this event.
That the police, who acted with excessive force (killed an unarmed dude), have access to machinery that would make the Russian seperatists in Ukraine envious.
That is the true takeaway from Missouri. Not that another inner city youth robbed a store and got killed. That happens with so much regularity that we have become desensitized to the daily fact. It's the response of the police that should be highlighted.

This is likely the reason they waited to release the robbery video.
Johnson was giving his account of what happened to every reporter who would listen, but had avoided giving it to the police until a day or so ago. Once they had him on record, having signed his witness statement (if in fact he told them the same story he had previously told everyone else), the time was right to release the video, which clearly shows Johnson's presence in the store, thus invalidating his eyewitness account of how the entire confrontation unfolded.

You hate the police and want to smoke weed without fear of the police ... we get it.

There is not enough information to know whether or not this is a true statement. If he attacked the cop and reached for his gun, the shooting was justified.

Just about everyone on this board has a problem with this.

Well, we are seeing a corrected first half of the story.
I'm interested in seeing the second half...
I'm expecting it to not be an innocent kid (we know that is debunked already) holding his hands up in submission and then being shot by the officer.
That's what.... truth.
Then the entire event will be shown to be nothing like what was reported and acted on.
