This has to be the least surprising headline of the summer.  It would be far less obvious if the DOJ were just to put out a big neon sign saying:

“We can’t find anything to substantiate the arrest or conviction of Officer Darren Wilson, so in order to appease the professional grievance community, and in an attempt to stop riots and general mayhem, we will announce a program to make the police department jump through PC hoops for the next five years – good enough”?

(Washington Post) Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. this week will launch a broad civil rights investigation into the Ferguson, Mo., Police Department, according to two federal law enforcement officials.
The investigation, which could be announced as early as Thursday afternoon, will be conducted by the Justice Department’s civil rights division and follow a process similar to that used to investigate complaints of profiling and the use of excessive force in other police departments across the country, the officials said.
The move follows the shooting last month of Michael Brown, an 18-year-old African American, by a white Ferguson police officer who claimed he acted in self-defense. Brown, who was unarmed, was shot at least six times on the afternoon of Aug. 9.
Holder’s decision will represent the Obama administration’s most aggressive step to address the Ferguson shooting, which set off days of often-violent clashes between police and demonstrators in the streets of the St. Louis suburb. (more…)

Two weeks ago we tried, and failed, to openly reach out to “researchers” interested in the backstory of the “Big Mike” Brown shooting.
Just because the cat had her kittens in the oven, don’t make them biscuits.
From personal experience within the concentric circular maze that surrounds such a quest, we suspected, nay assured the outcome. It is significantly important to know what structural and political forces which comprise the cement, which builds the walls, which make the maze.
Running head strong into a very specific justice system, while waving a petition for sunlight allowance, will get you, well, nowhere but headed home with a headache.
But the wall builders will gladly accept a fee to allow your strike with the hammer – futile though it may be.
We did not pull the Trayvon Martin criminal records from the Miami-Dade School Police Department by going into the maze constructed by a similar ideological wall-builders: Superintendent Alberto Carvalho, Police Chief Charles Hurley et al.
We tunneled under it. The truth takes extra digging – and the drone enabled CRS are always on alert.
So take this for what it’s worth: Saint Louis – Michael Brown was never found delinquent of the juvenile equivalents of any Class A or B felony charges, and was not facing any at the time he died, a court official said this morning at a hearing on whether his juvenile records should be released.

First Geographic Orientation:

Officer Wilson fired 10 shots at 12:02pm.  Locate on the map above the location identified as “Black Canseco Video”.   The camera operator is on the South side of Canfield Drive facing North.   The camera pans East (toward Big Mike body) and West (toward Officer Wilson SUV which is approximately 125 feet away).
The video/audio recording below starts at 12:07 pm (five minutes after the shots were fired – only the first police perimeter was established).
The mystery background witness testimonial begins at 12:11 pm (only nine minutes after the shooting and six minutes into the video).
The transcription accompanying the video/audio is from a professionally trained audio transcriptionist – who donated their effort to assist our research.

Dorian Johnson, who was with #MikeBrown when he was shot, is in federal protective custody & fears for his life. http://t.co/SokB1eY3Xv

You already know the outline, if you don’t – REFRESH HERE – The only thing missing was the pre August 9th 2014 confirmation of a gold and black bracelet.  Dorian ownership.
While looking very closely at this picture:

The challenge began to zero in for something like this – something similar:

Well, well, well…. (more…)

Wow.   This article appears to be framing Dorian as a poor fellow caught up in something, well, just horrible…..   The parallel universe is strong on this one.  You decide.
FERGUSON, Mo. — Dorian Johnson had just moved from his mother’s house in St. Louis to a two-bedroom spot in the Canfield Green Apartments that he was sharing with his then-pregnant girlfriend and another roommate.
Sometime in March, a buddy stopped by with a stranger.
“Wow,” Johnson said, “that’s a big dude.”
The dude, Michael Brown, was 6-foot-4, and he had brushed past Johnson with barely a hello as he headed to the video-game console and began to play.
“I asked, ‘Why he don’t speak?’ ” Johnson recalled in a 90-minute interview with The Washington Post last week — his first interview since federal authorities questioned him shortly after the shooting, his attorneys said.
“He don’t like to talk to people,” the buddy said.
“He’s in my house, he’s going to talk to me,” Johnson replied — then he engaged Brown. Johnson soon had the answer to his own question. (more…)

Mystery solved:

The item was most likely the original flimsy cover for Mike Brown’s body after it was removed and bagged. Placed on the ground away from the body as the larger covering was put into place.   Makes sense. (more…)

BGI and Radical Leftists Get Victory Over Darren Wilson

SAINT LOUIS – Supporters of Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson, who sparked weeks of unrest after he shot and killed unarmed teen Michael Brown, have raised so much money to support him that they had to open a second online fundraiser.
On the fundraising website GoFundMe, supporters needed just seventeen days to raise more than $420,000 for the officer, portrayed as either a hero or a monster in many of the reports and conversations around the country about Ferguson.
But a national nonprofit dedicated to strengthening the voice of black America is calling out the popular fundraising site for profiting off Wilson’s fundraisers, saying the site is financially exploiting racial intolerance and murder.

Color of Change, founded after Hurricane Katrina to empower black people, has launched a petition demanding that GoFundMe return the profits it has made from campaigns for Wilson. The fundraising site automatically charges 7.9 percent and 30 cents per donation in the U.S. and Canada.
“GoFundMe should return any money it has made from Darren Wilson fundraising pages, and take them down immediately,” the petition says. “Profiting off the killing of Michael Brown is not okay. Profiting off of racially-motivated donors is not okay.” (more…)

Initially we thought the item identified at the base of the drivers door was brass shell casings as a consequence of Officer Darren Wilson discharging his firearm while under assault by Mike Brown.  (click to enlarge)

We were wrong.
HatTip to Treeper LTC8K6 – According to his own statements and media testimony, accomplice Dorian Johnson said he was not involved in the physical confrontation at the SUV of officer Darren Wilson.
Additionally, in his various statements, witness Michael Brady had placed Dorian at the passenger side of the SUV approximately 5 feet from the front bumper.  But Brady readily admits he did not see the origination of the struggle, only the part where it got really loud, captured his attention, and he peered through his apartment window to witness Mike Brown punching Officer Darren Wilson through his SUV window.
Dorian Johnson has repeatedly claimed he was not involved in assaulting Officer Wilson.  Johnson blamed Mike Brown for the violence that occurred at the vehicle.
Logically this seemed to make sense because obviously when presented with two subjects officer Wilson identified Mike Brown as the greater of the two threats, and did not pursue Dorian – Wilson’s focus was on Big Mike Brown.
However, evidence now suggests that both Mike Brown AND Dorian Johnson were involved physically at the SUV in the initial struggle with Darren Wilson. (more…)

The United Nations is rising to proclaim that America does not do enough to protect and defend the rights of violent thugs on U.S. streets. According to official U.N resolutions the United States is not protecting the freedom of murderers to commit murder.
(AFP) – The United States must stem police racism and brutality, a UN watchdog said Friday, as debate rages over the shooting of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown by a white officer in Missouri.

“The excessive use of force by law enforcement officials against racial and ethnic minorities is an ongoing issue of concern, particularly in light of the shooting of Michael Brown,” said Noureddine Amir, who headed a review of the US by the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
“This is not an isolated event,” Amir told reporters. (more…)

Understanding The Origin Of The Mike Brown Narrative

When we first began digging in to the Mike Brown story something odd was immediately identifiable.    The individual witness statements, when compared over time, were case studies in the evolution of self-contradiction.
But why ?
It’s generally a true statement that eye witnesses testimonials can often be unreliable; but the statements of the people hitting the New York media circuit were beyond unreliable – they were contradicting themselves from show to show, often within hours.
A little research into the shooting aftermath and things begin to fall into place.

The primary witnesses used to create what we’ll call ‘the media narrative’ were and are:  Dorian Johnson,  Piaget Crenshaw, and Tiffany Mitchell.
A few days later Michael Brady surfaced, but Brady didn’t follow the same script – and we’ve discovered why.
To understand the origin of the “Hands Up” tale it helps to have a firm understanding of where each of the players are AT THE MOMENT the shooting took place.

Tiffany Mitchell was arriving to the apartment complex in her car to pick up Piaget Crenshaw for work.    Tiffany’s car pulled in as the shooting took place. (more…)
