well, I guess we compare the stories and ask ourselves, does Mr. Johnson’s story pass the smell test? For instance, if a car door ‘bounces’ back, how does the seated officer manage to then grab a 6’ individual ‘by the throat’? did the car door lock? was it still ajar? Details tell the truth:
I saw the news interview of a young lady perhaps 25 well spoken intelligent describing what she saw from her balcony and it matched this kid’s story there. And it was clear that they didn’t get their stories together.
She said that the officer grabbed Johnson by the throat/neck THROUGH the open window of the door and then she heard the shot. She didn’t go into details as to whether the door was open or closed at the time.
If in fact there was a door between them and their contact was through an open window, that is quite credible and verifiable through forensics.
Furthermore if true then it makes the claim that there was a struggle for the gun bogus as it is a little hard to reach for an officer’s holstered gun through a car door window particularly when the kid was 6’4” and about 300lbs.
agree, the thugs story doesn’t pass the smell test.
ow on earth does the car door slam, the officer falls in the car and then grabs through the window a 6 ft guy and then shoot him execution style.
it is amazing how some watch the media and think they are told the truth.
