The quality of the film is poor. He looks just as normal as the rest of the guys in the group and pdoes not seem to be holding his face or head in a way that would make me think he was injured. Seems like an exaggeration after the fact.

After already waiting hours before even going to the hospital, your injuries are not life threatening.

IOW, he doesn't have to actually be stabbed with a hole in his torso before he can react with deadly force.

The case will be made, probably, that the blows were just the beginning in addition the reach for the weapon and that is what caused Wilson to be in fear for his life. That will be judged through a reasonableness standard and not one of hindsight.

I think the Grand Jury will let him walk, but he should be fired.

I didn't see injuries.

That was the real story about that video. They are all LIARs

It is difficult to tell anything from these images. There could be slight swelling that is not visible on this. I believe Zimmerman's injuries were barely visible unless you knew what you were looking at/for.

Just because he "could" have some swelling does NOT mean that he did not injure himself on the door trying to get out or in some way when Brown was trying to pull away.

There is no need to deny unknowns. If no other images show up then, yes, he certainly would be exaggerating but right now this is not enough to base any assumptions on.

Again, he could have gotten injuries in his attempt to pull Brown in via the window or when he tried to get out of his vehicle to pursue Brown.

at an unarmed person. That's the problem. Something might have happened at the car. But that doesn't warrant shooting at him while he ran away, endangering innocent people in the neighborhood, etc.

I think the Grand Jury will choose not to indict, if for no other reason than the prosecutor didn't really push the case. If that happens, Wilson should be fired. Of course, the police chief is saying right now that he will return to duty. That might change.

Wilson shouldn't have done anything but drive on or exhibit an ounce of patience.

My concern is this; just flat out saying I don't see any injuries and he is exaggerating makes it sound like if he did have injuries that show up in pics later.... it could put an unintentional spin slightly in his favor in that context. Maybe the family knows more as well as the witnesses but the online community should wait for a second until more is known if there is anything else to know.

I want to know How those "injuries" occurred if there are any and by what I have read it was by the door slamming on him as he tried to get out or during obviously what would be an awkward tussle between Brown and Wilson (through a car window). If someone tried to pull me into a car, I would pull back and if they had a good grip I would wrench and writhe until I got free. I suspect an unintentional injury could occur in that case, hell, if Brown had to punch his way out, that could also be the case.

I'm going to be fuming my brains out if that jury doesn't indict.

sure...that's as believable as zimmerman's supposed injuries. they both can LIE with impunity because some people will always believe them. they count on that, and unfortunately, it works too often.

who examined him? Presumably such a medical professional would supply unbiased, expert testimony to the grand jury on the extent of his injuries, providing a much better picture than squinting at the video.

Did not seem to be acting like someone who needed to go to the hospital, especially two hours later.
I find it interesting the quote from the Ferguson police chief "...he'd obviously been hit or punched or something like that." Yeah, "something like that".
