That's horribly unfair if that is true. The family has a right to the autopsy report, even if there is still a continuing investigation. I thought the family had seen it, and that spurred them to ask for an additional autopsy to verify the first.

They are having the DOJ conduct another autopsy now. Crump has stated that he doesn't trust the results that the police will present.


The police won't release the full results of their autopsy until they've received toxicology back, which is pretty standard.

Posts like these ^^^ are exactly the reason that "we" need to take the discussion offline and behind closed doors.

Did the Brown family release the results of the 2nd autopsy? Why is the Brown family is requesting a 3rd autopsy

Think of it as an election, no matter how incompetent the candidate may be, if he is black you vote for him.

Read between the lines. A monthly report has to be turned in.
If the DOJ "suspects" racial inequality they will SURGE on the school.

And schools are making sure their numbers are what the DOJ wants to see.
Don't be so blind to think it's going to be written in that Dear Colleague letter.

Come May what happens is that kids are sent to the library to sit out disciplinary problems and there are no more suspensions.

I was mistaken. Earlier in the week it was released that an autopsy would be conducted by an independent pathologist from outside the area, it had been reported that it was going to be done in the next couple of days but apparently that never happened and instead, they are asking the DOJ to step in and do the second autopsy, which Holder has acquiesced to. Brown's family has moved his funeral back a week.


I apologize for the mix-up, just read the latest report on Reuters.

Wouldn't be a bad idea. I've been on this particular issue (I'm a black male victim) for a while now. It doesn't seem like some "get it"

And that's exactly what I tried to point out with that article.
And that happened in 2002.
