I'm slightly surprised MSM cable news hasn't reported about the autopsy yet.

All the witnesses including several journalists and key community leaders seem to be claiming that there was no sense of violence before these police action began. Seems to be no evidence of the whole molotov cocktail claim either.

GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE cop.

[NEOPARADIGM]

These cops are so fucking spooked if they're pointing guns at journalists.

Did you hear that dude yelling at the guy about the camera light? Fucker sounded like a lunatic.

 

[Chezzymann]

The comment section of tim's stream is making me cringe so hard

 

[BennyBlanco]

I wonder if people wouldve been executed in the street like they were during the newark riots if cops knew people with smartphones were live streaming and recording everything.

 

[watershed]

He could have been shot at while running away, stopped and turned around only to get shot from the front.

Eyewitness testimony isn't going to be perfect.

I think this is what happened, and still fits with eyewitness accounts. It's tough for an eyewitness to know if the shots hit him or not, but I think it's fairly unmistakable to see that he was running away and then turned around and proceeded to be shot to death.

Give it time. It just came out very recently.

 

[Badosh]

The fuck happened? Did people get pissed after the autopsy was released?

Autopsy released after police pushed forward on protestors.

 

[freddy]

Get her number Tim!

 

[shem935]

Yep. There were people just waiting for this so they can grasp at straws for "contradictions" already a lot of people in this thread doing it.

Or maybe they are sorting through the evidence we have and trying to make sense of it all. Automatically trying to shut someone up through accusations like this doesn't help a discourse.

 

[GameGuru59]

Best stream? Watching Vice right now.

link to the vice stream?

 

[B-Dubs]

All shots were fired in the front? That means he was not shot running away, but either when he was stopped with hands up or running towards the officer.

OR he could have been running away, the cop started shooting at him so he turned around to surrender only to be shot a bunch of times. Which gels with the witness testimony and right now is the most likely scenario.

 

[More_Badass]

I don't remember the witnesses actually saying that he was shot in the back, just that he was shot at and it appeared that something made him "jerk" as if he had been hit, then he turned around and got killed. Maybe I'm misremembering. But there's nothing to contradict the idea that he was shot at while running away.

Maybe him jerking was him flinching in fear at the gunshots? Then he stops, turns around, puts his hands up.

[Nanashrew]

Where has anyone said that?

It hasn't been said yet. It will be, and by the types who blame Mike Brown instead of the police officer.

He's gonna go with her.

Tim forgot to get her digits.

What did that sign say?

@TheKevinDent: If you're not doing anything wrong to the public why are they scared about having the cameras there? #Ferguson

So true.

 

[Infinite]

Doesn't this contradict the eye witness accounts that he was shot in the back while running away?

No it doesn't. He was shot at that doesn't mean the bullet hit him

Cop threatening to shoot a journalist over the light.

Damn Tim.

Girl: It's dangerous out there.
Tim: Yup. *continues to walk and report*.

 

[CrankyJay]

Did you hear that dude yelling at the guy about the camera light? Fucker sounded like a lunatic.

No unfortunately. My comment was prompted by a girl asking police for help and them pointing guns at her and saying no. Vice feed.

 

[TacticalFox88]

This PD needs to be put down, as ruthlessly as possible.

They NEED to made an example out of.

 

[Punchy4486]

Just because he was shot in the back doesn't mean he wasn't surrendering. Cop still shot a surrendering suspect, which is second degree murder.

Someone who knows ballistics or geometry better might correct me, but since those first four shots are all on the interior of the arm, wouldn't that imply his hands were up? Or at least showing palms in surrender?

Unless he berserker rushed the cop with his arms out like Wolverine...

 

[JokerAceX]

so he got shot twice in the head, turned around with his hands up, then got shot four times? Seems unlikely someone would be mobile after getting shot twice in the head.

instead of just looking at the pictures why not just read the whole report this was an execution, Wilson is going to jail.

 

[thepotatoman]

It possible he was shot at twice while he was running and then stopped, turned around and surrendered and then was shot. The witnesses might have mistaken that the shots fired when he was running actually struck him.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qo14KOcQxw

There was a shot, he fell, and then was shot 6 more times according to this one.

You know, it's not that hard to believe he'd hit the deck if he simply heard a bullet whizz by his head, which made it look like he was shot.

 

[More_Badass]

No unfortunately. My comment was prompted by a girl asking police for help and them pointing guns at her and saying no. Vice feed.

What? Seriously? Protect and serve, my ass

 

[captive]

Guys, the head bullets were the last ones. The Autopsy says so...

I have this sickening image in my head of Michael hunched over after having been shot 4 times, and the cop shoots him twice more in the head, execution style.

These cops are so fucking spooked if they're pointing guns at journalists.

Just a few minutes ago, MSNBC was showing the cops in the parking lot mall, the last guy on the line was indiscriminately pointing his pistol. No need to do that, not only that his pistol should be holstered.

 

[Evil Monkey DTT]

I don't know what system needs to happen but I no longer trust police. I know, took me long enough! And we all know for a fact this is going to be consequence free.

 

[everyday math]

Ummmmm need more info on this.

@JustinGlawe: Cops just fired toward a group trying to get this woman off the ground then drove away.

 

[jhmtehgamr20xx]

They shot him twice in the head.

But it was totes self-defense y'all.

Bye-bye bad cop.

 

[EatinOlives]

Did I hear from the Vice street that the police are shooting live rounds? Is that correct?

 

[timetokill]

Unbelievable that this shit is still happening. Failure on all levels of government and law enforcement.

 

[Snakes On A Dirigible]

Is the MSNBC stream online? Anybody have the link?

 

[DrForester]

It would be really hard to tell for sure if someone was shot in the back, actually. It's not like a videogame where blood spurts out of the wound. They probably thought he was (hell, Mike might have thought he was) when he turned around. He might have been just scared.

I'm pretty sure it's incredibly easy for autopsy personnel and forensic experts to determine from which way the bullet entered the body.

 

[Saganator]

Anyone wondering how much all this shit costs?

Been watching this with my room mate who said, "That's their tax dollars being shot back at them. They're being shot at with their own money."

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

I don't know what system needs to happen but I no longer trust police. I know, took me long enough! And we all know for a fact this is going to be consequence free.

Not with that autopsy.

 

[BronsonLee]

Looking at that autopsy report, it's probably for the best that Wilson isn't in town right now. Because oh my, that's damning.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Where has anyone said that?

I don't think he or she was implying any of us that are questioning the witnesses reports. At least I hope not. My last reply even mentions the possibility of brown turning around and getting shot six times.

Autopsy personnel sure, but he's talking about the eye witnesses.

 

[MechaX]

Doesn't this contradict the eye witness accounts that he was shot in the back while running away?

To be honest, it only raises some more questions.

We all assumed that he was shot while running away, but as people pointed out, depending on how many rounds Wilson fired, he could have been shot at while running away, and that is when he turned around to surrender only to be hit by the remaining volley.

 

[Nabs]

The official stream is at now.msnbc.com - but you need a cable acct to view.

edit: nvm

Do we know it's the police and not some nutjob in the crowd trying to incite something?

One of the witnesses did say something to this effect. =(

 

[Volimar]

These autopsy results are county or results from the federal autopsy?

 

[shem935]

Someone who knows ballistics or geometry better might correct me, but since those first four shots are all on the interior of the arm, wouldn't that imply his hands were up? Or at least showing palms in surrender?

Yeah that would make sense. Guy fell down raised his arms and got shot. Arm position wouldn't make sense otherwise.

That's what the reverend they were speaking with stated, yes.
