Ferguson Cop Not Indicted in Shooting of Michael Brown A grand jury on Monday chose not to file criminal charges against Darren Wilson, the white police officer who shot and killed unarmed black teenager Michael Brown on a street in Ferguson, Missouri, in August. The grand jury, which considered evidence for three months, had the option of returning a charge as severe as first-degree murder against Wilson, 28. They also had the option of a lesser charge, or no charge at all. Robert McCulloch, the St. Louis County prosecutor, announced the decision at a press conference. He said that some statements from witnesses were “completely refuted by the physical evidence.” “Eyewitness accounts must always be challenged and compared against the physical evidence,” he said. Ferguson and neighboring communities were on edge ahead of the announcement. Several hundred people gathered at Ferguson police headquarters, chanting. Businesses boarded up windows, and schools closed early for the following day. Police beefed up patrols, and Gov. Jay Nixon readied the National Guard. He pledged that law enforcement would focus on protecting lives, property and free speech. “Our shared hope and expectation is that, regardless of the decision, people on all sides show tolerance, mutual respect and restraint,” he said. Charlie Dooley, the St. Louis County executive, was more blunt: “I do not want people in this community to think they have to barricade doors and take up arms,” he said. “This is not a time to turn on each other. This is a time to turn to each other.” |

Re: Ferguson Cop Not Indicted in Shooting of Michael Brown This is a time for...Ghetto Trash to - totally - absolutely - and completely - abandon all affiliation with low life Black CULTCHA. The Ferguson Trayvon Martin's parents should be jailed and fined $100,000's (at least) for all the trouble they caused by intentionally raising a violent low life Ghetto Trash Thug and unleashing that animal on society. |

Re: Ferguson Cop Not Indicted in Shooting of Michael Brown Are we supposed to be outraged? I'm sorry I need to go riot and loot now...no justice no piece! I want my piece...piece of a new big screen tv. ![]() The poor DA tried his best to logically and precisely lay out exactly what occurred and why the grand jury made the decision they did, but you know that none of those demonstrators or Black community rebel rousers understood one word that was said. Awns you just know all they heard was the old Charlie Brown parent voice..."wa wa wawawawa wa, wawawawa...NOT INDICTED...wa wa wawawawa wa wa." it's too funny for words...the rebel rousers and media got their butts handed to them...it won't make a shits worth of difference, but I laughted mybass of. ![]() |

Re: Ferguson Cop Not Indicted in Shooting of Michael Brown Didn't matter the outcome, honestly. The protesters were going to riot/ loot anyways. |

Re: Ferguson Cop Not Indicted in Shooting of Michael Brown They are opportunist in Ferguson. The downside is now, other major cities are taking to the street. |
