Michael Brown Shooting Witness Releases Video: ‘I Knew This Was Not Right’ (Video)
The WRAP ^ | August 18th, 2014 | Tim Molloy

Posted on 08/18/2014 2:41:25 PM PDT by Mariner

A woman who says she witnessed the shooting of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown has released video to CNN that shows Brown lying in the street as officers stand by.

The shooting has spawned a week of protests in which demonstrators have demanded an explanation for Brown's killing. Police in Ferguson, Mo., say officer Darren Wilson opened fire because Brown tried to take his gun during an altercation.

Piaget Crenshaw said she has waited until now to release the video because she feared for her safety and was waiting for police to release Wilson's name, which they did Friday. She also said police could have released her video Friday — when they also released surveillance footage that they said showed Brown stealing cigarillos from a convenience store before the shooting. She said police had her video because they confiscated her phone.

My guess is you are wrong. The police office did not shot on the fleeing/surrendering thug. He shot the punk because he was rushing him. Mobs loot in all countries, civilized or not. I’m only embarrased for America because of the loser we have in the White Hut.

By the way, he wasn’t a kid.

That would just be the “racist Police/Justice system”. Can’t have that. Their will be two standards of Law/Order/Justice now because This Administration wants it. Equal Protection Clause and the entire Constitution be damned.

Please indicate the holes in mike browns back, thank you.
No holes in his back = narrative was false = opposite is true.

Like your tagline btw. One statement by zer0 and this goes to heck in a hand-basket nationwide. Thought it might happen today but zer0 didn’t say what he could have said to cause this to go nationwide. Am expecting anything at this point. We’re close to seeing something happen within a presidency thought would never see. One statement from zer0 and everything goes BOOM. Dang, we still have two plus years of this president to get through. Not looking good in that regard.

Yea, he wasn’t a kid. I have relatives in my family that were out on their own in their early teens providing a living. He was 18. Time to either be in school; community college or working a job to make a career. Not robbing a store or attacking a police officer. I feel bad there’s a lost son for the mom though I didn’t walk in that man’s shoes. He will have a lifetime to deal with this. His life will be destroyed like GZ. Obama Holder is seeing to that.

Not sure what you’re talking about.

I was speaking in general. Cops will cheerfully lie to protect each other. (Many) blacks have such antipathy to cops they’ll cheerfully lie to try to make them look bad.

I don’t think there are enough facts out on this case yet to make a judgment. I got burned on the Zimmerman case, and I’m not jumping to a conclusion again.

I’m waiting for release of actual facts, not spun rumors.

That’s her “story” but her video does NOT SHOW the shooting or the tussle.

I’m not buying her BS. Yes, if it proves the cop did wrong, he should and will pay even if he is found innocent. The court of public opinion has already “convicted” him. Like Gorge Zimmerman, he will pay the rest of his life.

If you know a cop that shot someone, ask them how they felt or still feel about having to kill someone. I think you will find a totally different story. They live with that the rest of their lives. I have heard it personally!

Did she witness the shooting as she claims, or did she look out the window when she heard the shots?

“How is this same guy not in jail ?”


Because the Ferguson Police Chief said that, after viewing the robbery video for six days, his crack team concluded that the guy was not guilty of any crime (!).

If he participated in the robbery, he could be charged with felony murder for the death of Michael Brown.

I’m still trying to figure out how the cop reached out of the window of his vehicle to put a choke hold around the neck of a 6-foot-plus 290 lb refrigerator... Stretch Armstrong?

I have heard it personally!

Same here Dave. Is always two live ruined, normally. The Officer am referencing left the Force after he pulled the trigger. He became extremely depressed. Is never good to have to pull the trigger or even worse ... make a mistake that takes someone's life. The court of public opinion is a terrible place for any and everyone when a life is either taken or lost unless one does not have a conscience. Have to say though many pullers of triggers do not have a conscience thus if zer0 says one wrong thing ... this situation goes nationwide. We've been set-up boy and girls.
