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.

You're out of your ever lovin' mind if you think there won't be a Federal indictment. The GJ meeting tommorrow is State/local level. As soon as that is no billed, he has about 12 hours to get out of town before the federal indictment comes down.

...and the best non-exdradition countries are: Croatia, Russia, Buthan, UAE/Abu Dhabi/Dubai, and Western Sahara.

Um, nope. Worse than a black eye. A black eye is bruising. This involves basically blowing out the back of the eye socket, i.e., fracturing the bone behind and below the eye.

Stop the threat or neutralize. Many times officers began CPR after shooting individual.

He appeared to be quite casually shooting the breeze with the other officer. I’m not disputing what you say, but he sure as hell didn’t look injured.

My dad’s family DID pick their own d@mned cotton. Year in, year out. And, they tilled their cropland with an old mule and a plow. Wish I still had that old plow.

But, I get your point.

What reason is there for not doing so?

A call from Eric Holder to the Governor, then a call from the governor to the mayor, then a call from the mayor to the chief of police. Also a call down through the various media outlets. Do not publish this stuff, or else.

Why do you think the BROWN/LIQUOR store robbery video was suppressed ? Why do you think the Robbery Police Report as suppressed ? Why do you think the BROWN SHOOTING incident Police Report is still being suppressed ?

Why do you think Eric Holder boarded a plane to St. Louis ?

Just because he was standing doesn’t mean he wasn’t injured. He may have been in shock.

When I was a small child, my parents were in a terrible car accident.

When the ambulance arrived, my father was walking around the scene with a broken leg.

You’re supposed to shoot for center of mass, but with a moving target, that center of mass changes by the second.

Yep...and the cop was shooting left of center due to eye socket injury +adrenaline.

Actually the real facts came out when Piers Morgan interviewed Trayvon’s so-called “girlfriend” Rachel. Trayvon attacked Zimmerman to teach him some respect. While doing so, Trayvon was introduced to a single 9mm bullet that abruptly ended the presentation.

We used S&W .38 revolvers as our department issued weapon. Lining up the front and back sights was fairly easy if you were standing still and firing at a still target. But anyone would have been dead, or close to it if they’d tried to line the sights up before firing while someone was charging at you. We also did combat stance shooting, but again, it was with a still target, and nowhere reflects what real combat firing would be like. We also trained with the AR-15, Remington shot gun, and gas gun. We used the revolvers on various duties outside of the facility, and when transporting inmates. The AR-15’s and shotguns were used on wall posts. The shot guns were also used on vehicle patrol, and fortunately, the gas guns were never used at any of the prisons I worked in over my 25 year career. We had to qualify each year to keep our Peace Officer status. This is in New York State prisons.

That indicates to me that they think this particular shooting was justified.

“who couldn’t see a ‘permanent underclass’ coming out of that...”

Umm, wasn’t that the point of importing slaves? I think that the slavers had every intention of always owning slaves, therefore their intent was to have a permanent underclass.....

Yes, but.

That’ll be those MSNBC/CNN type pundits’ explanation to their viewers.

One of my neighbors is a former Detroit cop and says he never had to fire his weapon in the line of duty. He says he did draw several times in 11 years but only ever fired it on the range.
