CROWDSOURCING REQUEST – Located within this inital media feed video of the Ferguson shooting various rumors and speculations can be dispelled:
1. The Reporter outlines how several (5 or 6) shots were fired after the arrival of the media. Hence the initial problem for the Police securing, and processing, the crime scene. This was part of the delay in morgue body recovery.
2. Clearly you can see Officer Darren Wilson’s POLICE SUV being removed by flatbed tow truck as it was evidence in the shooting.
3. Almost every “eye witness”, as well as Dorian’s mom, can be seen (albeit quickly) in a group discussion prior to giving the visible Detective statements.
4. However, perhaps more importantly, is the visibility of Mike Brown accomplice Dorian Johnson. Until now – his immediate location was unknown.
Dorian Johnson who, as witnessed, (@2:01) can be seen to have removed his T-Shirt -worn in the Ferguson Liquor Strong-arm Robbery- and standing in discussion with another male who is wearing a ball cap. Dorian’s T-Shirt slung over his left shoulder as he watches the scene from a safe distance.
You can compare his appearance as an unknown observer to the CCTV video from the Ferguson Liquor Mart (the giveaway -beside the shorts and shirt- is the shoes and anklet)
Dorian later gives a statement to the media – as shown in this video:
The reason this becomes important is because it shows “WHERE” Dorian was in relationship to the scene. It shows the general direction he went when the shooting began. That physical location can then be used to assess his initial statements.
Secondly, WHO is he talking to when he is thought to be an unknown bystander to the events? That person may have information critical to substantiate, or refute any claim(s).
Does the person he is talking to become more visible in later video footage ?
What we want to do is assemble a construct of the various video feeds in relation to the overall scene and location of the key players. We can then position the video feeds in relationship to the overhead map for reference. (click to enlarge)
Again remembering this key video aspect – we discovered:
The value is specifically because it is unguarded, and unprompted, testimony from an eyewitness that contradicts several others who spoke later but may have an agenda or pressure from the community.
Again, the conversation to focus on is in the background – Here’s the video and my seriously rough attempt at transcription, the important part is at 06:28 point: [ “#2” is the male eye witness ]
#1 How’d he get from there to there?
#2 Because he ran, the police was still in the truck – cause he was like over the truck
{crosstalk}
#2 But him and the police was both in the truck, then he ran – the police got out and ran after him
{crosstalk}
#2 Then the next thing I know he coming back toward him cus – the police had his gun drawn already on him –
#1. Oh, the police got his gun
#2 The police kept dumpin on him, and I’m thinking the police kept missing – he like – be like – but he kept coming toward him
{crosstalk}
#2 Police fired shots – the next thing I know – the police was missing
#1 The Police?
#2 The Police shot him
#1 Police?
#2 The next thing I know … I’m thinking … the dude started running … (garbled something about “he took it from him”)
The account from Darren Wilson as relayed by his friend “Josie” is almost identical to that unguarded testimonial. The friend describes the event –as told to her by Wilson– as follows:
He pulled up ahead of them. And then he got a call-in that there was a strong-arm robbery. And, they gave a description. And, he’s looking at them and they got something in their hands and it looks like it could be what, you know those cigars or whatever. So he goes in reverse back to them. Tries to get out of his car. They slam his door shut violently. I think he said Michael did. And, then he opened the car again. He tried to get out. He stands up.
And then Michael just bum-rushes him and shoves him back into his car. Punches him in the face and them Darren grabs for his gun. Michael grabbed for the gun. At one point he got the gun entirely turned against his hip. And he shoves it away. And the gun goes off.
Well, then Michael takes off and gets to be about 35 feet away. And, Darren’s first protocol is to pursue. So, he stands up and yells, “Freeze!” Michael and his friend turn around. And Michael taunts him… And then all the sudden he just started bumrushing him. He just started coming at him full speed. And, so he just started shooting. And, he just kept coming. And, so he really thinks he was on something.” (link)
Finding Dorian Johnson in the raw video feed of the scene is important because his physical location can be contrast against not only his statements, but also against the other witnesses and accounts.
