Wilson will not be indicted for any crimes...he may face a civil action from Michael Brown's parents, after they beat the raps for inciting a riot and armed robbery.

Oh yeah, guaranteed they'll go that route.

Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball


Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball

I wouldn't bet too heavily on that. There is already a petition for federal prosecution that has far exceeded the 100k signatures to require a WH response. And the bar association is reviewing the MCculloch corruption in the case.

They might not beat the rap for inciting a riot. Saying he wants a peaceful protest and then screaming for a riot within 24 hours seems premeditated.

The criminal justice system isn't based on petitions.

What kind of research?

A petition in excess of 100k signatures requires a response from the White House in this type of case. The request is for federal prosecution of the case and the petition has far exceeded that number. Now, nobody can twist Obama's arm beyond requiring a response, but it could result in another GJ being convened to rehear this case. Which may be reasonable based on the poor conduct of the last one.

There's no evidence of poor conduct, and there's nothing Obama can do about a state grand jury. There's no evidence that federal charges will be laid, because there's no evidence Wilson's actions were wrong. You've shown nothing to the contrary.

That's just not true. The Department of Justice is almost done it's own review of the Ferguson incident regarding a civil rights violation, which has a much higher bar than a grand jury. That's it. There is no response from the White House after that. Btw, I could get 100k signatures supporting Obama's impeachment. So what?

And of course, the DoJ/FBI already aided in the investigation leading up to the Grand Jury.......

Obviously you've done no research.

There is evidence of misconduct. The asst. prosecutor handed out a paper to the GJ which contained a reading of the law that says when cops are allowed to shoot someone fleeing. That particular law was deemed unconstitutional 20 years ago. If you don't see that as misconduct or at least incompetence, then you must be blind.

Posted

Actually, a suspect deemed to be dangerous can be shot no matter where they're going. In this case, all the evidence says he was headed back towards the officer.

Instructing a GJ to conduct it's decision based on unconstitutional law you think is fine?

Wilson was allowed to testify for something like 4 hours, and of course no cross. Once again, completely outside the prescribed conduct of a GJ hearing. How much more do you need to raise an eyebrow? Oh yeah, I forgot, willful blindness.

You do realize that if there were a cross, it would be the defence lawyer, right? They don't get to come to these proceedings, because it's weighted in the prosecutions favour.

You do realize that, for instance, the phony outdated law the asst. prosecutor gave the jury was totally weighted in favor of defense? And that's only one, although a major one, of the procedural failings of this case.

I see, so you think a cross by the defense would have increased the changes of charges being brought?

Oh yes it did.

No it didn't. As with almost all of what you've said, it's factually incorrect. Hopefully at some point you'll get some kind of closure, and learn to accept the grand jury decision, as well as the mountain of evidence that supported it.

I've already done my research on this but here's somewhere you might start. Go look up who Kathy Alizedah is and what she is accused of doing.
