I think we should all wait for the evidence to come out.

But, Wilson has not mentioned he was chasing him. By his account, he got out of the patrol car and Brown rushed him. So that doesn't add up Yes yes - now we are parsing words - he got out of his car and was heading in the direction of Brown - some would say chasing, following, pursuing etc etc. There is no bruising on Brown's body, which calls into question Wilson's claim of a struggle and getting punched in the face. Have not seen any photo's of the claimed struggle or bruises - no idea if a closed fist or open hand was used. How long does it take for bruises to happen if you're dead a minute later?

If Wilson got punched in the face, Wilson would have the bruise, not Brown.

"There is no bruising on Brown's body, which calls into question Wilson's claim of a struggle and getting punched in the face. " No it doesn't. There is evidence of assault on the officer's face according to the public statement. The officer's story is that he was struggling to maintain control of his weapon, no claim of having punched Brown. No question at all. At this point we have had some evidence released. Of the solid evidence we see credibility for the scenario coming out from the officer's perspective. There is nothing to call into question (except guys like you) the officer's story, while there is more and more coming out that validates it.
