Michael Brown Sr. Calls For Reopening The Investigation Of His Son's Death
Michael Brown Sr. is asking the St. Louis County prosecutor to reopen the investigation into the death of his son, Michael Brown Jr.
Brown requested the reopening of the case Friday, five years after Brown, 18, was fatally shot by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson.
“I stand here today to discuss the unsatisfaction with the way my son’s death was handled, and I am demanding evidence to be re-analyzed and accountability to be followed,” Brown said.
St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell did not say Friday whether he would reopen the case.
