I appreciate the work the CNN correspondent did in examining the 19-page compendium that Ferguson PD released this morning. On page 17, there is a time-log with short entries. At 14:12 (2:12 p.m.) the log says "SHOTS ON CANFIELD." That was two hours after the shooting. The next entry, a minute later and in lower case, reads "4 to 6 shots." That is pretty much what Dorian Johnson said on TV this week. I do wonder why there is no police log contemporary, or shortly after the event, around 12:05 or 12:10.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290152190457552426.post-91589580427263140392014-08-15T13:24:20.717-04:002014-08-15T13:24:20.717-04:00The fact Brown was a suspect in a robbery should, ...The fact Brown was a suspect in a robbery should, obviously, not justify his murder, but that is what the authorities are attempting to do.

She reported to me that police have not had a presence in the neighborhood seeking out witnesses to the crime. Rather, they have come up with fictionalized accounts. She attended a meeting of local reporters last night, whom she described as reluctant to report the facts as well. One, she claimed, discounted the account of a witness because he was known to have once "stolen a backpack."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290152190457552426.post-86394646644223372372014-08-15T10:27:44.565-04:002014-08-15T10:27:44.565-04:00My daughter, who lives in St. Louis and knows Ferg...My daughter, who lives in St. Louis and knows Ferguson from her work as a community organizer reports that there were many witnesses to the shooting, three of whom have corroborated on details though they don't know each other, nor have communicated with each other.
