Controversy Surrounds Democrat Cori Bush's Tweet on 9th Anniversary of Michael Brown Incident with Police Officer

Rep. Cori Bush Criticized for False Tweet on Michael Brown's Death

Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) received criticism for a tweet she posted on the ninth anniversary of Michael Brown's death. In the tweet, Bush falsely claimed that Brown was killed due to racism and white supremacy, and suggested that he would still be alive if these institutions were eradicated. The tweet sparked backlash online, with many pointing out that Brown had attacked a police officer and was killed in self-defense.

Department of Justice Findings on Michael Brown's Death

The Department of Justice under former President Barack Obama has determined that there is no credible evidence to refute the account of Missouri Police Officer Darren Wilson. Wilson claimed that he shot Michael Brown in self-defense after Brown attacked him while he was sitting in his police vehicle. This incident occurred after Wilson was called to the area in response to reports of Brown stealing from a store and assaulting a store clerk.

Forensic Evidence and Witness Testimony

According to a report, DNA evidence belonging to Brown was found inside the SUV, as well as on Wilson's shirt collar. The report also mentioned that the trajectory of the bullet and a close-range gunshot wound on Brown's hand suggest that his arms and/or torso were inside the SUV during the incident. Brown was described as being 6'5" tall and weighing almost 300 pounds.

According to a report, witnesses have stated that Michael Brown appeared to be a physical threat to police officer Darren Wilson as he moved towards him. These witnesses are supported by blood evidence found on the road. The report suggests that Wilson fired at Brown in what seemed to be an act of self-defense and stopped shooting once Brown fell to the ground.

Loesch accuses Bush of rewriting facts and labels his statement as shameful and racist.
