I've seen the vid of the construction crew (or were they landscapers..?) who had just witnessed the shooting, and they were yelling at the cops "he had his hands up!"

surrendering... Am I thinking of another police murder?

Another man who also got shot by police. He was clearly mentally disturbed and the bystanders did not view him as dangerous at all. Somebody called the police to get him help and next thing you know they come out guns blazing and kill the guy.

There were witness statements of what happened, but all video is of him lying on the ground.

...that I made in August. It's raw video from right after it happened. There's at least one guy in the crowd that sounds like an actual eyewitness. I transcribed the audio, with timestamps, where I thought it was pertinent.

Here's the original cell phone video, recorded right after it happened:

There are multiple places throughout the video where you can hear people (possibly eyewitnesses) in the background say that the police fired on Michael Brown after he was already down. Some of it is hearsay but some of the people sound like they might be actual eyewitnesses.

In the video, you can see the trail of brains in a straight line from the top of his head, which would seem, to me, to indicate that Michael Brown was shot in the head after already being down on the ground.


The newly released audio with the sound of 6 (or 7) gunshots, a pause and then 4 more gunshots, seems to verify the eyewitness accounts in the early cell phone video.

TYY

the two white guys, who witnessed the Brown shooting, there is video of them holding their hands up, demonstrating what Brown did when shot.
