    The officer who shot #MikeBrown did NOT know he was a suspect in a robbery, according to #Ferguson police chief. They were not related.

        @aterkel @cenkuygur so, what's the purpose of #Ferguson police statement other than demagoguery and pure propaganda? #MikeBrown

        @aterkel even if he did you still don't shoot someone who has his hands up and is surrendering. The guy had the right to a trial by a jury

        @aterkel @zachdcarter | Did Darren Wilson cook up jaywalking stop because he didn't have probable cause? #MikeBrown https://plus.google.com/106376732825535879672/posts/V4MMDrH5daX …

        @aterkel @cenkuygur Well, there goes that extremely threadbare defense for gunning down an unarmed teenager in the street.

        @aterkel Chief claimed media requested it, but the media had no idea it existed, completely irrelevant to FOIA request

        @aterkel @cenkuygur Still, it doesn't justify Officer Wilson 2 shoot #MichaelBrown even if he was attack w/ his body, like use Taser or Mace

        @aterkel that won't stop @cenkuygur from saying he knows exactly what happened with second to second detail.
