Mizzou copper no billed in shooting
2014-11-24
A white police officer will not face charges for fatally shooting an unarmed black teenager in a case that set off violent protests and racial unrest throughout the nation, an attorney close to the case said Monday night.

A St. Louis County grand jury declined to indict officer Darren Wilson, 28, for firing six shots in an August confrontation that killed 18-year-old Michael Brown, said Benjamin Crump, an attorney for the family. The decision had been long awaited and followed rioting that resembled war-zone news footage in this predominantly black suburb of St. Louis.

"The jury was not inclined to indict on any charges,'' Crump said after being informed of the decision by authorities. Prosecutors scheduled an news conference to announce the decision.

#8  Champ wasted no time in using the Grand Jury announcement as a media opportunity to condemn racist America. We could have expected no less from him.

#6  The guy grabbed merchandise and strong armed the proprietor. He was stopped for owning the street by walking down the middle of it. I have a feeling the evidence was overwhelming that he tried to own the cop and the cops hardware (pistol).
