The FBI has completed its investigation into the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed, black 18-year-old, in Ferguson, Mo., a U.S. official said Wednesday.
The Justice Department has not yet announced whether it will file a federal civil rights charge against former Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson. But officials and experts have said such a prosecution would be highly unlikely, in part because of the extraordinarily high legal standard federal prosecutors would need to meet.
The New York Times and CNN, citing unnamed sources, reported Wednesday that Justice Department lawyers were preparing a memo recommending Wilson not be prosecuted; U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric H. Holder Jr. — who is expected to leave his position within weeks — will make the final decision. Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson and Mayor James Knowles said Wednesday that they had no information about the status of the investigation.

“..because of the extraordinarily high legal standard federal prosecutors would need to meet”
Almost makes it sound as if the officer is getting off on technicalities. Ugh.
Why are the feds involved?
So they could look for some reason - any reason - to get Darren Wilson into jail, sue him into bankruptcy or otherwise ruin his life in order to placate the Left’s racist base.
perhaps Holders work is done in Ferguson. what Holder and obama wanted was to force the cops to go along with the federal policing and diversity reeducation and more black cops and less black arrests and so on. So the Ferguson police must’ve finally cried “uncle” and Holders work is done there.
Which city is next?
Do the owners of all the looted stores get to sue the DOJ, Obama, Holder and Sharpton for inciting a riot?
Black Man Who Killed White Teens Apologizes To Families Of Michael Brown And Eric Garner During Sentencing Hearing, Says “Black Lives Matter”…
The left has a new hero.
DETROIT, Mich. (WJBK) – Two Westland teenagers were murdered execution-style in a vacant Detroit field two and half years ago.
Wednesday was their opportunity to address the men who killed their sons but what one of the defendants had to say to them left everyone shaking their heads.
Fredrick Young and Felando Hunter – were sentenced on this day to life in prison without parole for robbing, torturing, murdering the two teens who had been in Detroit trying to buy drugs.
Jourdan Bobbish and his friend Jacob Kudla – the Westland teens went missing in July of 2012. Their lifeless bodies were discovered days later – in a field on Detroit’s east side.
At the sentencing, the victims’ family members gave their victim impact statements.
“Everything just aches and it’s just a totally senseless crime,” said Mike Bobbish, Jourdan’s father. “And how you could march someone out in the middle of a field and execute them – we’re not a third world country. Sometimes I wish it did happen in a third world country because it would be a lot different outcome of this whole thing.” […]
When Young had his chance to apologize to the families – he did nothing of the sort..
“I’d like to say sorry to the families of Aiyanna Jones, Michael Brown, Eric Garner,” Young said. “And I want to apologize to them for not being able to get justice for their loved ones who was murdered in cold blood – and in respect for the peaceful protest, I want to say hands up don’t shoot. Black lives matter – that’s it your honor.”
People in the courtroom reacted in disbelief. But still – the message from the families of Jacob Kudla and Jourdan Bobbish was one of forgiveness.

Maybe that was another reason to intervene in Missouri -- plenty of DemonRat political assets in Misery.
If Obama doesn't get what he wants from FBI, watch for FBI Director's head on a plate to whiz by.....
Ahem. Allow me to help. I believe the term of art that applies here is, "He was 'caught up'."
No, of course not. It just means they have another excuse for a riot.
