Grand Jury evidence shows that Mike Brown was one of a group of three people who went to the Ferguson Liquor Market at 1:13am on the same day as the shooting. The Grand Jury saw CCTV evidence of his visit approximately 10 hours before the cigarillo robbery at the same locale – this would have been overnight between Friday 8/8 and Saturday 8/9.

Additionally, according to robbery cohort Dorian Johnson’s somewhat sketchy grand jury testimony, he and Mike Brown met up at 7:00am outside the apartment where Mike Brown was staying. Dorian’s testimony is “sketchy” for several reasons, not the least of which is the time between 7:00am and the robbery at 11:50am is essentially unaccounted for and unreconciled – despite his testimony.

COMMON SENSE – On it’s surface the claim of unemployed Dorian Johnson, and his friend Mike Brown, both getting up that early on a Saturday morning just strikes as defying common sense for obvious reasons.
Assuming Mike Brown went directly home from the Liquor Mart empty handed, and went to bed, he would only have around 4 hours of sleep before meeting up with Dorian.
However, if going to bed were the objective, common sense would tell you he wouldn’t be at a liquor store trying to buy booze at 1:15am. A more probable explanation is a group of young guys hanging out and partying.
Either Mike Brown only got a few hours of sleep, OR he never went to bed that Friday night and stayed up with friends.
Considering an unlikely early wake-up for Dorian, the possibility exists that perhaps Dorian was one of those “friends” who was with Mike Brown at the liquor store, and stayed up all night.
Against the backdrop of the seemingly odd and unreconciled timeline that day; and knowing now that Mike Brown was out with friends early in the morning; the following Saint Louis media report from 6:30am that same Saturday morning might be worth revisiting:
ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV.com) — A man wanting narcotics attempted to rob the St. Anthony’s Medical Center hospice facility early Saturday morning, police said, leading to the center being placed on lockdown for almost six hours.
Police said around 6:30 a.m. Saturday a man wearing a ski mask and carrying a handgun entered the hospice center demanding narcotics from a male nurse. The nurse walked the suspect towards the back of the center. The intruder then ran out of the building without narcotics, according to police.
Immediately following the attempted robbery, it was unknown if the suspect had left the building, which forced tactical units to do a thorough sweep. It was later determined the man left the building.
St. Anthony’s Medical Center was on lockdown until authorities checked all buildings and lifted the lockdown around 12:15 p.m.
Police said they originally responded to the call as a hostage situation, but said later no one was taken hostage.
The hospice facility is located on the campus of St. Anthony’s Medical Center in South County, but is not directly connected to the hospital. (continue reading)
The Hospice Center is quite a distance from Ferguson (opposite side of city), however, the time of day is what really strikes as unusual.
Quite possibly it’s unrelated….
….. then again, how many unemployed thugs that age are up and around at 7:00am on a Saturday. “Thugs”, because the strong armed robbery is factually admitted and evident.
