Federal charges unlikely for Darren Wilson in Ferguson case

(CNN)—A federal investigation has not found enough evidence to charge Darren Wilson with the federal crime of depriving Michael Brown of his civil rights, according to multiple sources familiar with the investigation.

The FBI has completed its investigation into the August shooting in Ferguson, Missouri, and sent the findings to the Justice Department, a law enforcement official and a separate U.S. official said Wednesday.

Justice Department prosecutors will not recommend civil rights charges against Wilson, who killed Brown, because there is not sufficient evidence to support charges, a U.S. official told CNN.

Ultimately, the decision will be made by Attorney General Eric Holder, who has said he will announce a decision before he leaves office, which is expected to be by spring.

Sounds like it could very well be settled doesn't it?

Until just a bit later in the article there is this.

Ultimately, the decision will be made by Attorney General Eric Holder, who has said he will announce a decision before he leaves office, which is expected to be by spring.

Will Holder's decision reflect the lack of evidence of the investigation or will it reflect the wishes /wants of Al Sharpton and/or the family of Michael Brown?

What are your thoughts?

I agree!

As one who lived during the racial strife of the mid to late 50's and into the 60's and watched the improvement in attitude and actions in my opinion the situation has deteriorated in the last six years to just as bad or worse than the mid to late 50's and into the 60's.

For that MT suit HMWAIC and his sheep to proclaim being the "uniter"  all are delusional and live in a fantasy !
