I dont know. I only have the eyewitness account to go on. Even if he never walked up on him how hard would it be to drop 3 shell casings near Brown?I would take that to mean Wilson walked up on Brown and kept shooting him just like the eye witness described.Define advancing. Taking a step or two after being shot or a head down rush like he was a linebacker? Mind you this is after he ran away from the cop.the photographic evidence at the scene demonstrates
that brown was not only facing the officer but rather advancing on the officer
and that the officer was backing away from brown
it had to be at least 20 feet
since brown is lying next to three bullet casings
How close do you think Wilson was to the suspect when he fired his last shot?
Extremely difficult. First, you have to assume that he was carrying empty shells. Highly unlikely. Second, if he wasn't carrying empties, he would have to find the empties, pick them up, and then drop them, all the while knowing that those shots had drawn the interest of many witness's.
Occams Razor will point out to us what really happened.
