Friday marks the fifth anniversary of the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. An unarmed black teenager, he was shot and killed by Police Officer Darren Wilson, who said Brown attacked him. A grand jury later chose not to indict Wilson. Brown's father, Michael Brown Sr., tells CBS News' Jeff Pegues he wants the case re-opened. Brown told Pegues he's not as angry as he once was, but it's going to be hard to revisit that moment five years ago today when he found out his son was gone. When asked what he recalls most vividly from that day

Of course he does, goaded on by liberal activists that want to replay all the lies, all of the chaos, and all the 'cops are racist' chants from 5 years ago.

Don't know how they do things in MO, but when I was on the Grand Jury in NM, evidence presented that resulted in a finding of No Bill could never be heard again. If Missouri has a similar rule, reopening the case would be pointless.

These people need to choose their heroes more carefully. This guy steals from a convenience store, gets questioned about it by a cop, beats up the cop, then tries to take his gun. Think maybe that's a good way to get hurt? Maybe killed?

My guess is that he spent all what he got from the city/state the first time and is doing this to try to shame more guilt money out of them

I'm guessing the money they were awarded has all been spent.

The blood money must have dried up already. Michael's mama probably saved a ton of money by not having to feed him for the past five years, the kid was an absolute hippo. Just watch how quickly CNN picks this up and runs with it.

Given my own personal experience, I don't think there is any black person willing to blame another black person for anything. It's like Obola's motto: If you're black, I got yo back. The prisons are full of innocent people according to locals.

CBS wants to keep their "unarmed black teenager killed by white cop who 'claimed' he attacked him" narrative going. They've got their "New Evidence Emerges from Michael Brown Investigation" story ready.

Money from the last scam finally running out? Must have jacked up the price of MD 20-20.

This is a bit confusing.
Michael Brown, Sr. was a sperm donor, more or less, and Michael's mother had a loudmouthed boyfriend, himself a gang member, who was presented as the mother's husband.
I would find it interesting to ask Sr. if he believed that his son reached into the police car and tried to steal the police officer's pistol, shooting himself in the hand, leaving his blood and dna inside of the police car.
I would ask him if he believed the black man, a former prisoner with a felony record, was telling the truth when the man testified n support of the police officer's statement. (that witness, who said that as a former felon, he had no love for the police, but that the lies about the incident were too much for him to tolerate.)
Finally, the IRS should audit the Sr.s foundation.
