Officer Darren Wilson Suffered “Orbital Blowout Fracture to Eye Socket” During Mike Brown Attack
Gateway Pundit ^ | 19 Aug 2014 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/19/2014 8:22:57 AM PDT by mandaladon

The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown. Officer Wilson clearly feared for his life during the incident that led to the shooting death of Brown. This was after Michael Brown and his accomplice Dorian Johnson robbed a local Ferguson convenience store.

Local St. Louis sources said Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket.” This comes from a source within the District Attorney’s office and confirmed by the St. Louis County Police.

‘Hopefully, Officer Wilson will be able to get some semblance of his life back, eventually.’

I hope he gets a crack attorney & sues the race baiters back to the Stone Age. I hope he clears tens of millions & retires to the pleasant and enjoyable locale of his choice. Lastly, I hope he writes a book. May it be a bestseller, & further the turnaround/destruction of the Racial Spoils Industry, which his behemoth lawsuit would have begun.

Also,the officer may have been moving back as he fired. Shell casing location will determine position.

“I this for real? Gateway is the only source I can find.”

I read something right after this happened that said that the officer was treated for facial injuries, but the article wasn’t specific.

The officer did know about the robbery. It was only while he was backing up that he realized that Mike and Dorian seemed to fit the description of the perps, and that one of them had something in their hand that also looked like the described 'stolen' item.

All this happened in a split second.

The officer had passed by Mike and Dorian at first as he was on his way to the apartment complex for a non-related call.

He yelled at them to "get the f on the sidewalk", and they responded with some colorful language indicating "NO". That is when he hit the brakes, and started to back up, and his mind 'clicked' as he realized in that same instant that these guys fit the description.

Libs demanding McCulloch be immediately taken off the case, of course.

The more I read about this case, the more it seems it was a 50/50 toss up on would come out of this alive.

As soon as the Grand Jury No-bills the indictment (meaning no evidence to bring charges)...

You're out of your ever lovin' mind if you think there won't be a Federal indictment.

Few years ago that was a real news item: suspect beat himself up.

Easy to imagine Big Mike and friend sauntering down the middle of the street, officer pulls up, tells them to move aside, they sneer and cuss the officer and do the slow-walk strut.

Same thing the protesters (and the media) were doing EVERY NIGHT in FERGUSON since this started.

-- The nation, including itelligent people who share our views, were immediately led to believe the police shot a guy in his back 30 feet away. --

I submit that no intelligent person will invest him or herself in a press version of events. Especially not "early reports," and especially when there is a racial axe involved. The press is not trustworthy.

Excellent observation! Cop did indeed “wing” him several times, and the guy kept coming anyway. At some point advocates of “just shoot him in the arm/leg” have to admit that if that doesn’t work FOUR TIMES, head/COM is next.

We should have picked our own damned cotton.

...I have been saying this every opportunity I get...but better yet, pay some migrant workers a nominal wage to do the work, for a contracted period of time...

...but to import Stone Age cultures, as chattel slaves...who couldn’t see a ‘permanent underclass’ coming out of that...

Exactly... Common sense says post pictures of cops injury ASAP. What reason is there for not doing so? The delay only causes doubt.
