Documentary shows new video of events before fatal Ferguson shooting

FERGUSON, Mo. —A convenience store is disputing a new documentary's claim that previously unreleased surveillance video suggests Michael Brown didn't rob the store shortly before he was fatally shot by police in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014.

One of the filmmakers, Jason Pollock, told The New York Times he believes the footage shows Brown trading a small amount of marijuana for a bag of cigarillos around 1 a.m. on Aug. 9, 2014. The video doesn't clearly show what was exchanged, but shows Brown leaving behind the bag of cigarillos.

Pollock reasons Brown intended to come back later for the cigarillos. Pollock argues the new footage challenges what authorities have said about Brown pushing a worker and taking cigarillos during another visit to the store about 10 hours later, shortly before he was killed.

I am so very tried of hearing about all this stuff. If the MSM would stop showing this over and over again, maybe we could move on. It is nothing but fuel to the fire. Plus didn't the parents get a big pay out for this? So why keep beating a dead horse. (map)

NO 3:43 PM it is to make people like you think of such things, to lose focus on the real truth, that you people seem not to care about unless this travesty happens to you, or your friends or family, which is sad to say... You people think it is all candy canes and gum drops because someone smokes a little weed and that is a good reason to be murdered by a cop, yet I bet you drink, and I bet you drink and drive, and I bet you break at least 3 laws every single day you drive that car or truck of yours, is that a good enough reason to have you shot by a cop??? If you can think that way for someone else who smokes weed, then I sure as hell can think that way for when you break a traffic law... because remember, a law is a law and when you break the law, you break the law...

Would we still keep hearing this if he had white? I think not. Because white lives not matter any more. (map)

What does any of this "new" evidence have to do with him assaulting the cashier? What does it have to do with his interaction with the police? A big fat nothing.

4:19 - have another sip of the liberal BLM dumbocrat kool-aid! The kid was a thug and got killed for his thug-life ways. The kid's parents made money off of his thug-life ways...they should have been put to jail for raising that turd, abandoning him, and then coming back to defend him.

Your last line is the only proper thing you wrote - 'a law is a law' and he broke the law!

Why do they always use kindergarten or elementary pictures when you see a post? Especially Trayvon and Michael. 4:19 fine he smoked weed, can we see what he looked like on a regular basis?
