Discussion: Glide Verifies Authenticity Of Alleged Recording Of Michael Brown Shooting

Discussion for article #226995

Good on TPM for putting this story above the fold. It’s a critical development.

We now know with high probability that at least ten shots were fired, with a critical gap between shots 6 and 7.

Too much of TPM’s reporting on this story has been on peripheral trivia.

Well prosecutor McColloch, you were exactly correct when you stated, if the audio of the recording can be authenticated…that it will change the dynamics of this case…not sure what you meant by that, however, given the new findings, what are you planning to do now?

Back to the drawing board for the shooter and the police chief. I can hear it now, there are more to the sounds than you hear. Well, that use to work for the incriminating videos.

Ferguson PD: Who are you gonna believe, me or your lying ears?

He murdered that young man. I truly hope and believe that black folks in Ferguson and all around this country are FINALLY (freakin’ finally!!) getting it, understanding that voting and all the rest of this mess are directly related. We cannot expect to opt out of the political process and then expect to be respected.

He didn’t have his hands up in surrender. He raised his arms as he charged the cop shouting “whatchoo gon’ do?! whatchoo gon’ do?!”

The cop should have tazed him, not shot him. And Brown should have followed instructions. Not appoint himself king of the street.

Really helped their image there.

I hope the people of Ferguson come together and get rid of these…

fill-in-the-blanks.

Just got this…Some of the best, most beloved rappers in the game created a collabortation in honor of Brown and in opposition to police violence…This is a movement! Fuck, they’re quoting Gil Scott Heron.

"He didn’t have his hands up in surrender. He raised his arms as he charged "

So did he ‘charge’ after the initial 6 shots? Why the 5 second pause, then 4 more shots? How’s all that fit your theory?

That’s easy… because he was “hopped up” on the evil marijuana and he thought he was a bull!

Because we all know how violent and unstable weed makes you. There was even an educational movie based on this evil, scary substance. /snark off

How long before Alex Jones shows up of FOX talking about the shots REALLY coming from a ‘grassy knoll’ in Ferguson and that he has information he can’t divulge, of course, that it all was a ‘black flag operation’ run outta’ the White House basement???

And the FOXtards will say: “Now it all makes sense!”

This time and in quite some time – CNN made good.

Do you folks think the number of shots makes a difference?

At the very least, it might explain why the incident report was essentially blank. I may be forgetting something, but I don’t recall any stories about how many shots were fired overall, just that the first one came from inside the car, and the coroners confirmation that six shots hit Brown.

Yes. And so does the rhythm of the shots.
