Original Note:
Michael Brown was a robbery suspect and was shot after he initiated an altercation with police. Investigations, including by the DOJ, concluded Officer Wilson’s use of force was justified as Brown reached for the officer’s gun. https://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/03/04/doj_report_on_shooting_of_michael_brown_1.pdf https://text.npr.org/897836660
