OK. I agree LEO body cameras are a GREAT IDEA.
How about we start with Chief Law Enforcement Officer Attorney General Eric Holder.

Black Lies Shatter

WHITE HOUSE – “The underlying issue here are broader then just race that this goes to sort of a foundational relationship again between law enforcement agencies and the communities they are sworn to serve and to protect. Surely discussions of race are an important part of that relationship. There is no doubt about that, but its more than just that.”
So what does antagonist Al Sharpton say about his White House advice and intentions? (more…)

The Injustice League Unites – If Stompy Feet calls in the same group he met with prior to the new round of riots and agitation, he’ll be meeting with committee head Valerie Jarrett, DOJ’s Eric Holder, CRS head Grande Lum, MSNBC’s Al Sharpton, NAACP president Cornell Brooks, and National Urban League president Marc Morial.

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama will discuss the situation in Ferguson, Missouri, Monday with his Cabinet, civil rights leaders, law enforcement officials and others.
The White House says Obama’s Cabinet meeting will focus on his administration’s review of federal programs that provide military-style equipment to law enforcement agencies. (more…)

Police say “motive not released”.  Gee, I wonder why.  However, if the method sounds familiar, it should (see here).  And (See Here) and Justice for Trayvon (see here)

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Two juveniles are in custody in St. Louis after a Florida man was beaten to death with hammers.
Police say 32-year-old Zemir Begic of Miami suffered injuries to his head, abdomen, face and mouth in the attack. He was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Authorities say Begic was in his car about 1:15 a.m. Sunday when several young people approached and began damaging it. When Begic got out, he was attacked with at least two hammers.  The two juveniles in custody are ages 15 and 16. A motive for the attack has not been released.  (link)  (additional report here)
UPDATE:  This is about to get VERY UGLY – The Bosnian Community is active and engaged in Saint Louis.

SAINT LOUIS – Citing security fears, Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, who fatally shot Michael Brown Aug. 9, has resigned from the police department.
Wilson, 28, who on Monday was cleared by a grand jury investigating the shooting, had been a member of the city’s police department for six years.

In a brief telephone interview, Wilson said he resigned after the police department told him it had received threats of violence if he remained an employee.
“I’m resigning of my own free will,” he said. “I’m not willing to let someone else get hurt because of me.”
He said resigning was “the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.
“This is the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do.”
Wilson’s resignation letter reads: (more…)

Mommy, who is Mike Brown and why does he f*ck the policeman?

Kids, 7-10, here to perform carols ended up surrounded by #ferguson protesters on stage. All in tears.

Seattle […] Demonstrators marched through holiday traffic, blocked intersections and shut down light rail service to Westlake station. Some protesters moved the demonstration to the edge of the Capitol Hill neighborhood, where they clashed with police officers.
Both officers and demonstrators used pepper spray, police said. Some protesters wore gas masks.
Later, the city’s traditional Christmas lighting ceremony at Westlake started early after protesters surrounded the area and began rallying. Police turned out in force, arresting five people and prompting the mall to close several hours early.
Police said the arrests included people accused of assaulting officers and damaging an officer’s bicycle. (more…)

Treeper Commonsense has done an excellent job digging into Dorian Johnson’s Grand Jury testimony.   Many questions can be answered and additionally many explanations become self evident.   I am copying the entire analysis below (with a few edits) and inserting some additional research to help expand on the larger picture.
The issues are so riddled with complexity the scope of the article is very involved.  So sip the information slowly, bookmark to return if needed – all citations included.

The Story Begins:  Dorian Johnson’s Grand Jury testimony is utterly fascinating because it is so full of holes, and raises so many more questions.  (Who was Big Mikes roommate at Canfield?  What did they do for four hours that morning before going to the Ferguson Liquor Mart? etc.)
This can all be found in Grand Jury Volume #4:
First, the transcripts reflect, before hearing a word directly from Dorian Johnson on September 10th, the Grand Jury watched all of his media interviews.   In addition, the Grand Jury *listened to audio of an FBI interview with Dorian held on Wednesday August 13th four days after the shooting.
*This becomes key later in the testimony because some juror questions are asked that appear to come out of left field – but they are actually based on the previous information about and from Dorian the jurors have digested.
On on page 18 the asst. prosecutor lets Dorian know he’s not the focus of any criminal charges (for the robbery, for weed, etc.).  This seems to infer he has nothing to be concerned about in telling the entire truth.  Again, this becomes critical later on. (more…)

They didn’t get it, so now they want to shut it down…

FERGUSON • The relative calm leading up to Thanksgiving continued Thursday with reports of sporadic protests at St. Louis-area big-box stores sparsely populated by shoppers taking advantage of expanded holiday shopping hours.
Throughout the day and early evening, police and in some instances National Guard units responded to Twitter posts pointing to imminent demonstrations at area Target and WalMart locations.
