according to evidence the Prosecutor said Browns DNA was on the officers gun and the gun was fired from inside the car initially. sad that it came to that but the kid robbed a store minutes earlier and then apparently tried to get the officers weapon. more than one autopsy was done and if correct also by someone the Brown family requested and none came to the conclusion he was shot in the back as some witnesses had said. and many witnesses recanted their earlier statements an/or changed them.
I dont care what color you are or but if you rob (with or without a weapon) and try and take an officers gun you deserve what you get.
