A source close to the police investigation of Michael Brown is once again leaking information to conservative news media. It has been reported that the unnamed high-level informant has stated that Michael Brown beat Officer Darren Wilson so severely that the officer was almost knocked out. According to this source, Wilson suffered facial injuries that included a fractured right eye socket and swelling on one side of his face. The source went on to describe in detail Wilson’s version of event that follows the same narrative that another unnamed close friend revealed on a local radio show. In both versions, Brown is made to be the aggressor and Wilson was in fear of his life.
However, photographs and statements taken from witnesses seem to indicate that Wilson was not badly injured. In many pictures, Wilson is seen standing over Brown’s body and does not seem to be in any kind of physical distress. Furthermore, no medical attention was given to Wilson at the crime scene; it is only now being revealed that the assistant police chief took him to the hospital for treatment of his injuries.
The inside source goes on to say that Wilson is “traumatized, scared for his life and his family, injured and terrified” that a grand jury, will “make some kind of example out of him.”
