But Eric Holder called it "troubling" that Ferguson PD had released any info. Were they supposed to go against General Holder? Seriously, the idea that the police need to release all the details of the case prior to a trial sounds like it comes from impatient 4th graders. If they release info, it's selective, troubling & intended to paint Big Mike in a negative way. If they don't release any info then it's a cover up? No, people like you are just looking for anything to grab a hold of & scream racism. There literally is nothing the PD could have done that you wouldn't have criticized. Your mind was made up the second you heard the dead thug was Black & the cop was White. Same irrational dynamic as the people who cried bloody murder that the police were militarized & overly aggressive. Then cried that they weren't doing their duty when they stood down & let the criminals loot & burn. There was no possible course of action that people like you would have been happy with, so ********* & agitators like you, why even bother caring what you think? You're not looking for justice, you're just trying to fan the flames of unrest.
Because children don't like to wait for surprises. They wanna know now, now, NOW!!!!!!
Amazing that when these people are interviewed on tv, it is as if the trial is held by the media. they are going into details about what happened or thought happened. Shouldn't this wait till the real trial comes? becaause all these people speaking now, are going to be held accountable for their words, and this can hurt them in court if it turns out they lied or gave false info on tv right now.
No, I'm not. I abhor the media airing pd "stories" aired several days after the event. It reeks of a public relations official "creating" the "story". There is nothing Wilson and the pd could not say in the hours right after the event. They chose the delay and we should be asking "Why?".
The Ferguson PD could have handled this better I agree. But, we have a separate police department conducting the investigation, as well as the FBI. The police chief said Wilson was cooperating with investigators.
If there is a coverup, its going to have to involve a heck of a lot of people all getting their stories straight. And, whether or not we have heard their stories, the first story is locked in imo. So, unless they got the coverup airtight from the beginning and can control upwards of 50 people to maintain it, there is no coverup.
the other thing that disturbs me, is we haven't heard Officer Wilson's side of the story, Meanwhile the opposite side is hearing Michael Browns story, in the meantime people are getting riled up with insufficient facts and its inciting people to think a travesty of justice happened, where now people on tv today are saying the officer should be convicted WITHOUT a trial. LYnch mobs they are. this is just not right.
