Everything You Think You Know About the Death of Mike Brown Is Wrong
Here is the story of Michael Brown’s murder that we all believed: One sunny day in Ferguson, Mo., a huge behemoth of a man named Michael Brown walked into a convenience store; committed a strong-arm robbery, escaping with the invaluable loot of a pack of cigarillos; and while he was walking home, Darren Wilson, a brave cop responding to the robbery, stopped him.
When Wilson tried to detain Brown, Brown reached for the cop’s gun and the policeman shot him. But Brown wouldn’t quit, and the officer thought that Brown might have a weapon, so Wilson shot a few more times to stop Brown from harming him.
“What happened in Ferguson is that a man committed a robbery, attempted to assault a police officer, and the police officer—to save his life—shot him. The police officer did his duty. The officer should be commended for what he did.” —Rudy Giuliani on Fox News, March 12, 2015
Except none of that happened.
After a documentarian released video this past weekend that dispels the myth of the Mike Brown corner-store robbery, more information is emerging about the n-word-using patrolman who was accused of racial discrimination and excessive force even before he pumped at least six bullets into Brown on Aug. 9, 2014, killing him. New court papers reveal that Brown never tried to take the officer’s gun, never struck the officer and did not initiate any contact with Wilson, who was cleared of wrongdoing by a secret grand jury in November 2014.

2. The author of the story in The Root
explained in his update that his story (based on the reporting of the Washington Post's Wesley Lowery who uncovered the U.S. District Court document containing the testimony) is not about the facts in this case, but rather about the public's perception of the facts in this case.
"Here is the crux of Lowery’s point, and where we actually agree: Lowery’s argument is that Darren Wilson’s admissions do not contradict his grand jury testimony, and he is correct. Lowery is speaking to the facts of the case concerning Darren Wilson’s testimony.
This article wasn’t about that.
This addressed what everyone believed about the incident. It is clearly laid out in the first paragraph. This article was about the general public perception about the Michael Brown case, how the image of Brown had been twisted into making Brown into a police-attacking demon. How the general public believed that Wilson apprehended suspects on their way from a robbery and had to shoot the robber who reached for his gun."

No, you ignorant dindu POS. Brown, the filthy perp is now dead due to his indifference to humanity and reality. Bless us now that the filthy, worthless POS is worm food.

Really? How'd Officer Wilson's gun discharge in his car with Brown's blood in the same area?

Pollack was rude and contentious with MacCallum from the get-go, his tone getting hotter and his face getting redder as the interview progressed. He came on following Trace Gallagher's report about newly emerged surveillance tape that shows Michael Brown and friends at a convenience store on the day Brown was shot.
...
The new footage is from much earlier in the day -- 1:00 in the morning -- and was considered immaterial by prosecutors. But it wasn't hidden from the public. "It's documented in the police report," said St. Louis County prosecutor Robert McCulloch in a later interview. McCulloch said that the new video shows Brown "trying to strike a deal" with the convenience store employees but was not relevant to the case.
...
Pollock, who started his career as a documentary filmmaker under the tutelage of Michael Moore, constantly interrupted MacCallum as she spoke.
...
The red-faced Pollock hollered, “Can I speak now?!” He said one of the facts he was presenting in his movie is "the fact that Michael Brown was shot in the head and a bullet came out of his eye!" When MacCallum pointed out that there were three different forensic investigations that didn't find that, he shot back, “They all failed!”
...
"Well, he has his facts wrong, not shockingly," McCulloch said dryly. "There was no bullet in the ground anywhere near Michael Brown. He pointed out that three separate medical examiners -- including one hired by the Brown family -- came to the same conclusion.
Those three autopsies, one of them hired by the Crown family what will prove fatal to this loon's claims, except for the conspiracy theorists.
