The New York Times reported late Sunday that an autopsy on Michael Brown's body was carried out at the request of Michael Brown's family by Dr. Michael Baden, the former chief medical examiner for New York City.

Baden told the Times that one of the bullets struck the top of Brown's skull, suggesting that the 18-year-old's head was bent forward when he was shot. The doctor added that four of the six shots struck Brown in the right arm, and all the bullets entered from the teen's front. Only three of the bullets were recovered from Brown's body.

Baden did not have access to Brown's clothes, which may have gunpowder residue on them if the bullets were fired from close range. Baden also did not have access to X-rays that may have shown where the bullets were found, nor did he see any witness or police statements.

Wow, so I wonder if the thugs best friend is going to change his story again? This autopsy proves that the thugs best friend lied. He was not shot in the leg or from behind while he was surrendering.

Now the African American community is up in arms because they don't like the results of the autopsy that the FAMILY requested with the doctor THEY requested and they are now sending the National Guard in to deal with the situation.

Imagine what is going to happen when they hear the full story. They will probably destroy the town.

its not really clear if he was shot while surrendering or not

I am happy more facts are coming out though and suspect things will die down.

The witness stated he was shot in the back and the back of his leg as he was trying to flee, all though his credibility is shot anyways since he's gives several different stories. This proves that is not the case.

I live just 30 min from fergoson,its only getting worse with al sarptin,sturing up the ppl,he should be helping calm things down,but instead for two days now he is rallying the protesters up,telling the to take to the streets,getting every body all pizzed off,thats what thay want to teach there kids,dont talk things out in a calm manner,go out in the streets and burn your own area up,the very stores thay were just shopping at,I dont get it,,,

the looting and rioting has been off and on for a while before Sharpton got there and he is calling for unity rallys and raising up the arms in symbolism, not for rioting and not for 'not talking about things in a calm matter'

the constitution does allow for peaceful assembly about grievances,,,,Sharpton calls for such activism,, not for rioting

just watched him on tv bring up the same old crap,not one time did i here him say anything about being calm or even saying we all need to protest in a calm manner,hes talk negative stuff that ralls every body up,as you can here the crowed getting ralled up,and thats were it starts,

Then do the people who are rioting know the difference between activism and rioting? Or do they not give a damn what Sharpton says either?

really? how long was he airing on the television and how long did you get to watch him? just curious?

all AL is doing is fanning the flames,thats what he is good at,now my son who is in the NA GUARD has to go put his life on the line BC old AL want to stur up more sheet,we all need to chill out and let the facts lay were thay may,now that we know that mr brown was shot from the front and not in the back as it was reported earlyer,,do we start to protest saying thats revers raceisam?

obviously the rioters don't all know the difference

probably some rioters are getting the message, others are getting the message and not rioting (and therefore not shown in media), and some don't care about the message and just need an excuse to riot

I have believed from the beginning, as with most media reporting, that time is needed to reveal more 'facts'


I have believed from the beginning that rioting is defeatist activity.


I have also believed that peaceful assembly is a valuable weapon in the arsenal for change.

I don't believe in a 'reverse racism'

I do believe it is very reasonable for people to become upset (as I do) when an unarmed teen or unarmed non teen is shot dead,,,,by someone paid to protect the community.

thank you, now I can look it up and watch it for myself, to see how he 'fanned flames'

1) Rev. Sharpton has called for calm, has called for the citizen of Ferguson to obey the curfew established by Missouri's governor. I don't see Rev. Sharpton as one who has "fanned flames".

2) "I don't believe in a 'reverse racism'" - msharmony

"By focusing on just the racial aspect, the discussion becomes about whether Michael Brown's death - or that of the other three unarmed black men who were killed by police in the U.S. within that month - is about discrimination or about police justification. Then we'll argue about whether there isn't just as much black-against-white racism in the U.S. as there is white-against-black. (Yes, there is. But, in general, white-against-black economically impacts the future of the black community. Black-against-white has almost no measurable social impact.)" - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Just as in the case with Trayvon, the story that is presented by the activist community is incompatible with the facts as they later emerged.

That video changes everything for me, and I'm glad it was published. To talk about 'character assassination' in an effort to spin the facts is just terrible. Brown publicly assassinated his own character when he robbed that store. Maybe his parents assassinated his character by failing to raise him better than they did.

1) This guy had just grabbed, shoved, and intentionally intimidated an elderly gentleman half his size. This says something not just about his character and disposition, but also his state of mind and brain chemistry, just 10 minutes or so before the interaction with the police.

2) Isn't the guy in the video also the 'witness'? I'm just stunned by how dishonest the activist community is being about this event. The damn 'witness' everyone is quoting while they fan the flames of hatred towards the police was an accomplice to a crime! I'm watching this d-bag get interviewed on TV, spinning a horrible tale of police mis-conduct... and then I watch him participate in a robbery! wtf.


I'm hugely disappointed with the more visible portions of the anti-racist activist community in recent years. Spin and lies seems to be all they care about, the truth doesn't matter as long as they can incite passion by mis-representing events.

Notice how media picked up this story? They laid odds the cop was white. They won. Now, baby gets milk for the bottle.

Media is also posting pictures of what appears to be of about a ten or twelve year old child. Like the case where Big Z put down his kill.

Negros killing negros don't make money for media or NotSoSharpton.

Negros killing whites don't pay them both either.

Is anyone really surprised to hear thug witnesses lie?

Can't blame the rioters or looters. They jes a lashin out at da slave massah. It's a cultural thang and they're acting out within their level of mentality. Near animal.

Anyone supporting Sharpie and the cave dwelling rioters are idiots.

Maybe the NG can get the chance to put down a few more ferals.

Making the world a better place.

A purported conversation captured on a YouTube video apparently shot in the immediate aftermath of the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown has a possible witness saying the unarmed 18-year-old charged at the officer who fired the shots that have led to more than a week of sometimes violent demonstrations in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson.

Amid angry condemnations of the police and pledges to move away from the mean streets of Ferguson, one man describes what he saw as he witnessed the shooting. He seems to describe how the 6 foot, 4 inch, 300-pound Brown tussled with Police Officer Darren Wilson and charged him, an account that may corroborate Wilson's story and cast doubt on claims of other purported witnesses who say Wilson shot Brown as he ran away, his hands in the air.

Now there is a video backing up the Officer's story, more proof showing the multiple different stories Johnson gave are all lies (go figure). I hope they charge his ***, but him in jail and I hope the Officer sues him and Sharpton.

Sharpton was there within two days of the shooting. Nice try.

It's the mentality of them. Now Obama is getting involved. That moron needs to keep his nose out of local matters.
