Officer could have shot him once in the arm from the vehicle OR missed Brown (but Brown turned after hearing the shot), gets out of the vehicle shooting at Brown, hitting him with his arms raised (explains bullet wounds to the arms) and then walking up on him and finishing him with a head shot(s).
So, you are saying that the officer shot Brown in the arms three times, and Brown just laid there and waited for him to walk up and shoot him in the head twice??
This is true. I hope they just didn't use the wrong ICD-9 code, instead of just black eye/contusion.
To me, how much it changes depends on the order of events.
Because IF Wilson was hit in the eye while Brown was in the car, once Brown exited,
Wilson should have realized he had a situation
he could no longer handle and call for backup. And YES, stayed in his police car.
If he was THAT injured, he certainly could have injured an innocent bystander wailing a weapon,
with diminished vision. Once again, inexperience and wrong decision making skills at play here,
IF we are to believe your scenario.
If every cop just got back in their car when faced with danger the lawless would be ruling this country.
You are going to have to come to grips with the fact that cops shoot people.
A cop's life is not all about pulling people over for speeding tickets or helping stranded motorists.
What law suddenly says they can't say a cop was injured in an altercation? They release that info, and detailed info, to the media all the time.
If they had "physical evidence that the cop had a busted eye" they would have released it. They haven't so they don't. It's a fabrication to get public sympathy. The cop wasn't nursing a busted eye in the video.
Missouri sunshine law.
Forbids the release of investigative details from an active investigation. This is a unique feature of Missouri's sunhine; most states give authorities the option to release records before the investigation closes. The robbery information could be released because the investigation on that incident had been closed.

Maybe the cop could have called a timeout to call back up. I am sure Mr. Brown would have willingly complied. This whole scenario probably happened so fast training and instinct took over.

Let's play out this scenario.
Officer stays in his car after getting beat.
Brown flees and breaks into pollyrobin's house to hide.
Brown beats & rapes pollyrobin within an inch of her life.
Do you still wish the Officer would've stayed in his car?

The "unnamed" witness' account totally contradicts this account given by a woman who saw the thing and was interviewed right after everything took place. She was the first woman interviewed by the first news crew on the team. She hadn't seen the news because there was no news. She didn't know Brown or the officer. She's obviously emotional about what she just saw.
According to her, Brown had his hands up when he was shot. He had surrendered and did not charge the officer. She said the first shot(s) came from inside the vehicle and that then Brown began to run. She also said that "the boy didn't do anything to deserve that"
Why are all of the accounts making Brown out to be the aggressor from unnamed and unverified sources. Doctored images and questionable reporters?
"The boy did not do anything to deserve that"?
So -
1. assualting a police officer
2. trying to grab the officer's gun (presumably to shoot him)
3. charging the officer
............... constitutes "doing nothing to deserve that"?
