No shit, Sherlock. The same is true in any and all legal proceedings (any person who may be implicated/indicted in a crime hopes for the best).

No, I'm just sick of the whole circus surrounding this event, including all the baseless speculation. Unless the rules have changed, justice is served through a thorough investigation, a grand jury,...

Perhaps the only time I've ever agreed with a post of yours. Tom is succeeding in making you seem lucid. No small feat.

I wonder how many other young black men have been shot around the country since this incident, mostly by their peers.

Your jumping to conclusions since day one is what's wrong. Wrong enough to get you fired if you were involved in any real investigation.

The only thing we are sure of is that the kid robbed a convenience store, got shot a few minutes later and the community blew up afterwards. Everything else is speculation.

The rioters, looters and firebomb throwers aren't exactly creating public sympathy for their (real or perceived) grievances.

He was caught on camera in the robbery and not in the shooting incident. It's much easier to fabricate a story for which video evidence doesn't exist. I wouldn't bet a lot of money on the...

It's because in such cases, people are more interested in confirming their own biases than adjudicating the truth. You'd think the Tawana Brawley case would give them pause.

Not necessarily. If he had PCP in his system, for example, allegations of his assault on the cop become all the more credible.

As for him being "executed in the street," that's a stretch at this...
