Toobin: Ferguson Cops Treat Dead Deer Better than They Treated Michael Brown’s Body

‘Ten minutes of an exposed, dead 18-year-old with no one covering the body’

Toobin: Ferguson Cops Treat Dead Deer Better than They Treated Michael Brown’s Body (Mediaite)

There’s a new video out showing the aftermath of the Michael Brown shooting in Ferguson and how Brown’s body was just left lying on the ground for minutes This caused CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin to remark that the police treat dead deer better than they treated Brown’s body.

In the video in question, Brown’s body is on the ground, exposed for several minutes. Toobin said, “I think this is deeply significant, this video… Ten minutes of an exposed, dead 18-year-old with no one covering the body. I mean, they treat deer who get hit by cars better than that.”

He said this does explain a lot of the anger about what’s going on in Ferguson, but also noted how the video shows plenty of witnesses who were at the scene either during or after the shooting. That means, Toobin said, there will be “an abundance of evidence for the FBI to look at.”
