Ferguson PD Video Backfires; Brown Seen Paying For Cigarillos
A hat tip to our good friends at AATTP and YouTube user Wango Tango. The Ferguson PD has a lot of explaining to do.
By: dave-dr-gonzo
David Hirsch, a.k.a. Dave "Doctor" Gonzo*, is a renegade record producer, video producer, writer, reformed corporate shill, and still-registered lobbyist for non-one-percenter performing artists and musicians. He lives in a heavily fortified compound in one of Manhattan's less trendy neighborhoods.
* Hirsch is the third person to use the pseudonym, a not-so-veiled tribute to journalist and author Hunter S. Thompson, with the permission of his predecessors Gene Gaudette of American Politics Journal (currently webmaster and chief bottlewasher at Liberaland) and Stephen Meese at Smashmouth Politics.

A lawyer for Mr. Johnson said that his client was interviewed by the F.B.I. and the St. Louis County police last week for nearly four hours. In that interview, Mr. Johnson admitted that he an…d Mr. Brown had stolen cigarillos from the store, said the lawyer, Freeman R. Bosley Jr.

The video completely undermines that claim. The way Bosley frames the report, it would not surprise me if the Ferguson cops pressured Johnson into a confession. I wouldn’t lend any credibility to Johnson’s “confession”.

After the Central Park rapists were found out years later to be innocent, I don’t trust confessions anymore and especially from Ferguson.

johnson and brown both had a record. wise up
Diane Rickman Carder August 20th, 2014 at 10:15
this video is a OS it does nit undermine anything. It proves he stole.
Diane Rickman Carder August 20th, 2014 at 10:14
yes that is just it.

BS……The other tape clearly shows him leaving without paying. Also shows him assaulting the clerk or was that a figment of my imagination? The looney left strikes again….

Diane Rickman Carder August 20th, 2014 at 10:12
OH COME ON!!!!!!! This tape does not exonerate Brown in anyway shape or form. It only confirms he was a thug a big bully who stole and strong armed the store owner. You sure are desperate to make him look innocent but that is not the case
youngfunds August 20th, 2014 at 12:25
So they had the right to shoot him 6 times?
Josh August 20th, 2014 at 10:12
What about the fact that his friend openly admitted that Michael stole the cigars? You don’t need to watch a video for that one, check sources and facts before you write bs articles. I’m not trying to say the shooting is or is not justified, just fact check yourself beforehand.

it is funny how someone will create their own news to fit their own story. I saw no money in the video, but maybe he put it on his account. also he didn’t get a cigar he got the whole pack, not counting what he handed his bubby in the beginning. I don’t think a lot of people actually watch the videos but read opinions of others and go off that, like the store owner saying he didn’t steal them, cant find that anywhere but above.

Dear Alan:
Why is this video “trending” when the reality is it shows NOTHING than vindicates Brown? Also…explain why none of the MSM has even talked about or shown the video. Could it be that there is nothing to see? I think so…

A few facts overlooked.
1. It wasn’t a pack of cigars, it was a $48.99 carton
2. His accomplice admitted he stole the cigars
3. He “DID” strong arm the store owner
4. He wasn’t stopped for robbing the cigars; allegedly
5. Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with Michael Brown.
It appears the victim went from one violent encounter to another.
If they’re going to report the incident, then please report all the facts. A jury will decide not a mob based on the evidence presented.
Kevin Ryan August 20th, 2014 at 13:30
Thank you, Always Right! The article got a few points wrong and omitted others, didn’t it? Welcome to the Spin Zone.
Kishona Woodfork August 20th, 2014 at 17:00
Review your facts and try again! Seriously! The store owner admitted brown steal anything also there’s a video of Wilson standing over browns body perfectly fine after he murdered him! Nothing was wrong with his face…FPD is trying to make a cover up and is doing a great job at failing! :)
TYRONE BIGGUMS August 20th, 2014 at 18:09
his friend admitted that they were involved in the robbery… so why will his friend lie? we all over here talking like we were there and saw him raise his hands when even in the original video a by stander could be heard saying that he saw the whole thing happen and brown infact did get into an altercation with the cop. and tried to run. even though that doesn’t justify his killing a dead black man is still a dead black man regardless of the color pulling the trigger. what happened to the 600 black little kids that were killed in chicago last year? all they simply got was an r.i.p shirt and no riots. but once a o non white kills one of us its a problem. JAMES J BROADNAX killed 2 white guys coming from christian choir practice. in cold blood and what was heard about it? nothing.. if white people rioted every time one of us killed them this country will be disorderly. we might want to start at home and start trying to fix our own selves. if you fighting for your civil liberties by looting stores you definitely have the whole thing backwards.
denisel10 August 20th, 2014 at 19:02
I think the point a lot of people miss is that normally when a black person kills another black person and definitely if they kill a white person there is no question that justice will be served and if it isn’t its definitely not due to any bias or special treatment towards the black person, so this is the main reason blacks tend to protest when its the other way around. Historically whites have killed blacks and gotten away with it, so the protest is not just about the crime itself, its about justice for the crime.
Penny August 20th, 2014 at 18:25
I wonder if anyone truly knows the facts completely. Always two sides to the story. What did come across in that video is that Michael Brown was a bit physical with the clerk, you cannot deny that. The police shooting him, IDK was not there but do feel that there is excess to often and so this needs to be investigated, and I hope either way the truth comes out. Were you in the store since you seem so sure of what transpired???? Just curious,not being sarcastic!
Jason Neal August 21st, 2014 at 17:26
Lol. This made me laugh. 2 things about your “Facts”. 1. There isn’t a video of Wilson standing over the body. You are referring to the video of the second officer to show up after Wilson left. This video was used to encourage death threats against the second officer prior to the release of Wilson’s name. 2. The store owner never said any such thing. This “article” *implies* as much but fails miserably. The owner said that none of the employees called 911. That’s it. The MANAGER who was shoved by Brown DID file a police report which you can read here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/ferguson-police-report
Your facts are so well founded Sherlock.
pacavelli August 22nd, 2014 at 13:19
Show me proof for these “facial fractures”.. Give me some pictures, after a crime, pictures are taken on any injuries.. dont ever mention this again until you can back it up.

Perhaps you believe you are “entitled” to be catered to. I am so sick of the entitlement mentality of the last few generations. No one owes you a darn thing. If you want to see the facts and the evidence, find it yourself! I have read the online autopsy and online police report by looking them up myself. Why don’t you do the same? The autopsy is pretty telling. Brown’s friend told everyone the officer shot him in the back. Guess what? No shots in the back in the autopsy. This tells me that Dorian is NOT a reliable source of information. The police report is pretty lengthy and they do use big words, … I hope you are up to it.

White people love this Chicago shit….. Why don’t you concern yourself with things like when another school or movie theater is shot up by you people….. The difference is that it’s authority figures doing the killing…try to.stay on the fucking topic…show me the link where a white kid, ….gets killed or abuse by a black cop….people that bring up Chicago CLEARLY have nothing useful to add to this conversation, so y’all pull that out of your ass….and riots start as protest that escalate because police and usually tear gas……but i guess it’s more dramatic to only bring up the riot part…..how about the people in the city that helped calmed it down and put an end to the looting, why not mention that?

Yes, this is a typical transaction. I can’t tell you how many times I have had to reach over the counter to get my stuff and pay, and then when I try to leave the store only to have the clerk come out to thank me so I have to playfully grab him by his collar and push him up against a store display before I leave. Those clerks can be jokesters.
