The media says Brown: 6'4, 290, Wilson 6'4, 205

It's irrelevant. Don't sweat it.

Ferguson's Darren Wilson is first 6'4, 210lb child in history*says Piers Morgan | Daily Mail Online

6'4 210lbs which is pretty fit!

LOL, and Wilson said he 'felt like the size of a child' when confronting Brown.

(paraphrasing; don't know the exact words but something similar)

He said he felt like he was a child grabbing "The Hulk".

I didn't know Wilson was such a big guy-I guess he's just a gentle giant **snicker**.

A good tactic to create an image that the jury seems to have bought into.

If cops feel they can't dud their jobs correctly due to the size of the public, they should quit and find another more appropriate job.

The whole grand jury thing was a sham.

A grand jury is brought together to determine if there is enough evidence to bring someone to trial. The grand jury typically NEVER hears defense arguments, only the prosecution's evidence.

The mere fact that Wilson testified at the grand jury negates their purpose.

It was a strength comparison. Men of similar builds can have a huge difference in strength.

Then you throw in the fact that Brown most likely had a head start in terms of adrenaline.
