re: #121 Dark_Falcon
That applies only if Wilson recognized or reasonably should have recognized Brown’s attempt to surrender. If he reasonably thought Brown was turning around in an attempt to charge him, then a murder charge cannot be sustained.
I don’t see how anybody could reasonably believe Brown was going to charge Wilson. Brown was running away from the officer, who had already shot at him multiple times. He turned around with his hands raised. Brown couldn’t have taken more than a few staggering steps forward before he was killed. How does this add up to, “He is join to charge?”.
