(26,060 posts)they've released is the robbery report - not the hospital report, not the shooting report, not the autopsy report. Where is the fucking media with these questions?

(26,060 posts)until now (went to see the Woody Allen movie and walked around Times Square with all the tourists) and came home to CNN and it sounds like the police chief is getting his head handed to him. I'm praying things remain peaceful. Meanwhile I also come home to Rick Perry getting indicted!!! Love it.

(2,805 posts)Unless I am wrong the report was not written by Darren Wilson. A different cop went to that scene and put out the description over the radio--he later edited the report to include Brown's name which might be standard procedure (There was a preliminary copy printed at 12p.m. Link to PDF at this CNN story: http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/15/us/missouri-teen-shooting/index.html?hpt=hp_t1
