[Vision2020] All evidence released by St. Louis County Grand Jury . . .

[Scott Dredge]

You know what Sunil?  You're right.  I was expecting everyone involved to do their job to the best of their ability for the integrity of the system.  Maybe a'la the Trayvon Martin / George Zimmerman case, a bulldog of a special prosecutor should have been assigned with a direct order to put forth the strongest prosecution case possible regardless of whether he or she was handed down an indictment from a grand jury.  Since the anger in the black community and the surrounding media frenzy centers around 'white cop kills black kid for the crime of jaywalking', it seems to me the best way of directly addressing this aspect would be for the prosecutor to put forth a clear and convincing case that this was a racially motivated killing by a white officer with a patterned, systematic, and provable history of racial hatred, discrimination, and harassment of blacks coupled with verifiable instances that he brutalized black suspects.

Absent that, we have 1) videotaped evidence of a victim who is shown displaying two separate acts of aggression toward another person shortly before his fatal encounter with an armed law enforcement officer, 2) evidence and witness testimony of a violent altercation between the victim outside of the police car and the officer inside the police car whereby the officer initially fires his weapon, 3) the officer exiting his vehicle and unleashing a hail of gunfire until he has emptied his service revolver.  

Out of this the jury is tasked with determining criminal intent, justifiable shooting, other, or split decision (aka hung jury).

Scott,

If the prosecutor wanted an indictment he'd have it. You're confusing this for a neutral process. He got the outcome he wanted with the grand jury for cover.
