A Startling Admission By The Ferguson Prosecutor Could Restart The Case Against Darren Wilson

54. You are way off base here, and pasto76 told you why.

But his otherwise excellent post got hidden because he responded angrily to your "butthurt" crapola.

I was a search and rescue shot caller for the county for about 9 years. Ive interviewed about a dozen 'eye witnesses', usually in the scope of: this witness is the last person to have seen our missing person.

100.00% of them gave me bad intel. Some of it wildly inaccurate. Surely you would remember that the person who you actually saw was wearing a blue shirt, and not a yellow one (interestingly enough, this subject had on a yellow bandana though...)

The unreliable nature of 'eyewitness' testimony is well documented. I suggest you google it. When eyewitnesses "change their story", most of the time it is devoid of motive. Yes, the testimony of Wilson and Brown's friend will be different. Because they have different psychology, prejudices and influences as individuals. For example, I have become aware of several events during my deployment in iraq which I have been told I remember inaccurately.

This mechanism is COMPLETELY different than lying to insert oneself into the case. Completely different from lying under oath about something with serious consequences. If the prosecutor ever knew that she wasnt even at this location during the shooting, that is a grievous event. Sifting through differing and contradictory testimony from numerous witnesses is the name of the game. Literally. Thats why there is no "fury" over those. Thats why there is no fury (but I personally dont believe a word) about Wilson's testimony.

You are ascribing the lying motive to a lot of people, but selectively - in your words -not assigning that lying motive to #40 or wilson.

Moreover, it is, in fact, the job of a PROSECUTOR to seek an indictment. This guy acted like he was the personal defense attorney to Wilson.
