Smear Campaign Follows Release Of Michael Brown Killer’s Name


"Police on Friday said that Darren Wilson, the officer who shot and killed Michael Brown last weekend, confronted Brown after the teenager was identified as the main suspect in a convenience store robbery that occurred Saturday morning.

However, hours later, authorities said that the robbery was not the reason for the encounter that ended with Brown shot to death on a suburban St. Louis street, suggesting that it was unrelated to the confrontation.

Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson, who took no questions at a news conference Friday morning, described Wilson as a six-year veteran with no disciplinary record. Wilson was publicly identified for the first time Friday following many complaints from residents that the police had not named him.“* Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz (Turner Classic Movies), John Iadarola (TYT University) and Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show) break it down.

Michael Brown Outrage, Or Lack Of, Reveals Who YOU Really Are


“The fact that Michael Brown was a suspect in a strong-arm robbery that happened moments before he died should do little to quiet critics who have wondered why a Ferguson, Mo., police officer shot and killed the unarmed 18-year-old last week, law enforcement experts said.

On Friday, Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson released surveillance footage and a police report that revealed Brown was suspected of stealing a box of cigars from a local convenience store shortly before he was gunned down Saturday.

But in a second news conference, Jackson said Officer Darren Wilson did not know Brown was a suspect in the robbery before approaching him. Brown was stopped for impeding traffic, police have said.“* Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz (Turner Classic Movies), John Iadarola (TYT University) and Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show) break it down.

Cops Beat Man Bloody Then Arrest Him For Bleeding On Them


"Police in Ferguson, Missouri, once charged a man with destruction of property for bleeding on their uniforms while four of them allegedly beat him.

“On and/or about the 20th day of Sept. 20, 2009 at or near 222 S. Florissant within the corporate limits of Ferguson, Missouri, the above named defendant did then and there unlawfully commit the offense of ‘property damage’ to wit did transfer blood to the uniform,” reads the charge sheet.

The address is the headquarters of the Ferguson Police Department, where a 52-year-old welder named Henry Davis was taken in the predawn hours on that date. He had been arrested for an outstanding warrant that proved to actually be for another man of the same surname, but a different middle name and Social Security number."
