One would think, him being all lawyer-y and stuff, he'd know that in an ongoing investigation, certain information is kept confidential until the investigation is over and there are charges to be filed.ACLU Ferguson police report on Michael Brown s death violates law - Yahoo News
It looks like the Ferguson police department is more concerned about covering their ass than anything else, which suggests they are in the wrong and have a need for such a lack of transparency.Heavily-redacted document omits key public information.
A police report on the death of Michael Brown is missing key information and violates Missouri open records laws, an ACLU attorney told Yahoo News on Friday.
The two-page document, which the Ferguson Police Department released only after pressure from journalists and civil liberties advocates, is largely redacted or left blank. The most egregious omissions are the victim’s name and a description of the offense – the fatal shooting of Brown.
“They are breaking the law,” said Tony Rothert, legal director of the ACLU of Missouri.
According to the article, this information has been requested and denied.
Well this is becoming a standard for Government. I wish they were more worried about our Federal government under Obama not releasing information asked for. Or losing emails just in time for an investigation...
That's why I don't take the ACLU seriously
OBAMA!!!!!!!
ACLU rocks. When police demanded motorists's DNA samples they were all over it. But in their advocacy of our Bill of Rights, sometimes they come down on the side we like, sometimes they don't. But it's unfair to bash and criticize them for simply being fair and neutral.

Agreed, the Skokie march is an example wherein the ACLU alienated many. The ACLU supported the Neo Nazis right to march, anyone not unhappy with some of the matters in which they are involved, and believing they are correct in others, may not know a lot about the ACLU.
"Mr. Hill,
in ref to your request for incident report involving Michal Brown, this is an on-going investigation and we are unable to release a copy at this time.

The assertion that he was injured is completely contradicted by video of him after the shooting. He shows absolutely no signs of any injury. None.ACLU Ferguson police report on Michael Brown s death violates law - Yahoo News

My first inclination is that Officer Wilson was injured and did a sparse and maybe unintelligible police report before getting medical help. But that is no excuse. Some one should have assisted and then Wilson returned after seeking medical help to make sure of its accuracy. The Chief of Police, sensing its importance, should have followed up to check on the accuracy of the report.
Yeah...that's it.My first inclination is that Officer Wilson was injured and did a sparse and maybe unintelligible police report before getting medical help. But that is no excuse.

No...The ACLU wants the Ferguson PD to produce what the ACLU "thinks" is there.ACLU Ferguson police report on Michael Brown s death violates law - Yahoo News

We will have to wait for the reason for such poorly written report. Jumping to conclusions doesn't help either side. Like I said, there's doesn't appear to be a good excuse. The captain should have been on top of this.Yeah...that's it.My first inclination is that Officer Wilson was injured and did a sparse and maybe unintelligible police report before getting medical help.
