The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown. Officer Wilson clearly feared for his life during the incident that led to the shooting death of Brown. This was after Michael Brown and his accomplice Dorian Johnson robbed a local Ferguson convenience store.

pretty sure this was known early on.

But how good they Brown was an angle and a racists cop shot him for no reason.

This doesn't jive with the conclusion that was previously jumped to. Clearly made up.

There are medical records if he was treated in the ER. Truth will come out on this.

Michael Brown and Dorian Johnson robbed a convenience store? Seriously?

Brown handed Johnson a box of smokes and Johnson put the box back on the counter. Brown shoplifted the box of smokes.

Why must you exaggerate?

Racist ER, why do think on an X-ray the bone is white, and you can see black through it if it is broken ???

Splitting hairs? Accusing Dorian of robbery when he didn't rob anyone is "splitting hairs"?

And saying Brown "robbed" the store makes him sound so much worse than shoplifting a few cigars so let's go with "robbery".

Look, I went from no opinion to leaning towards self-defense. I'm waiting on the final autopsy report. And I did it without trying to paint one side or the other as the big bad wolf.

watching you attempt to defend this criminal thug for being a criminal is hilarious.

Just cut to the chase...claim he was a criminal because "whitey" made him do it.

Very logical position.

I wouldn't call the other man an accomplice either.

Now later on the other man's character and background may become an issue at a trial or in front of a Grand Jury, but now its of little consequence.

I think you (or anyone else) strip the term "character assassination" of any meaning when you start using it as a label for items that are true.

And saying Brown "shoplifted" the store makes him sound so much better than robbing the place , and getting physical with the owner, and trying to intimidate him with his size

According to Missouri's Criminal Statutes he committed a Robbery in the Second Degree

quote:

Robbery in the second degree.
569.030. 1. A person commits the crime of robbery in the second degree when he forcibly steals property.

2. Robbery in the second degree is a class B felony.

If true, it really doesn't change anything. There's really not much debate that there was some sort of struggle between Brown and the officer. Does a punch to the face justify 6 bullets and death? Forget about Brown going for the gun, that will never be proven nor disproven.


It is odd though that the police, nor the woman that is friend's with the officer's wife didn't mention this yet though.

In Missouri, what Brown did is classified as second degree robbery, not shoplifting.

Character can be an issue but you have to jump through the hoops the Code of Evidence presents.

From everything we've seen, it appears Brown was taunting the cop when he turned and approached him, probably in an aggressive manner. Had the two not had the initial confrontation in the car, the cop probably should have tazed him at that point. But once the confrontation in the car occurred, the cop was justified in drawing his gun.

If the cop did not shoot Brown as he ran away (doesn't look like he did from the initial autopsy results), but shot as Brown turned aggressively towards him, then the cop was justified.

The only issue is was it overkill? Were the last two shots to the head overkill? and I think when you're shooting to defend yourself, it's difficult to judge when to stop.

Unless they have a video of the actual shooting that might show a lot of time elapsed between the shots or something else, I don't see the cop being guilty of anything.
