This should have been decided at trial. I believe the officer would have been NOT GUILTY, but it should have gone to a process that had both sides ... and it shouldn't have happened in Ferguson. That prosecutor's office is obviously very biased. 14 suspicious officer-caused deaths, 4 grand juries, 0 indictments.

The media outlets are ripping the prosecutor and the whole process a new asshole right now, and I have to say: that's justified.
I presume you have taken a cursory glance at the various autopsies.
