Next time a person of politically preferred pigmentation commits suicide by cop, Obama, Al Sharpton, and the “mainstream” media won’t have to worry about eye witnesses testifying that the shooting was in self-defense. They will be too terrified, if this source is to be trusted:

[quoteAnother witness of the shooting of Michael Brown has been found dead in a dry channel near River Des Peres in Misssouri, local authorities confirmed.

The man has been identified as 23-year-old Shawn Gray, a black man who testified during the grand jury proceedings over the killing of Brown by former police officer Darren Wilson. …

Another witness DeAndre Joshua, also a young black man, was found shot dead and his car was torched outside the same neighborhood where Brown was killed.

Two witnesses of the Brown shooting have now been found dead under suspicious circumstances, while local authorities have not announced any leads in either case, and the press has provided minimal coverage.][/quote]

The press providing minimal coverage indicates that Gray and Joshua almost certainly told the truth to the grand jury. Imagine what the media would do with this story if they had knuckled under to pressure by telling the “hands up don’t shoot” lie. Pundits would scream themselves hoarse theorizing about racist police hit squads.

Did both of these guys testify, and if so, what did they say? I've seen accounts that deny they had anything to do with the Grand Jury.

Did you note how snopes phrased this particular observation?: "rumors started circulating around the Internet connecting the young man's murder to the non-indictment of Officer Darren Wilson in the controversial shooting death of Michael Brown."

I thought that snopes was pretty much debunked as being worthless (lying lefty partisan hacks) for anything remotely dealing with gubmint & politics years ago.

(I am of the impression that they can only be trusted for benign crap like: "Is it true that a discarded pop bottle on your lawn may be a crude explosive??")

Maybe these guys were bankers. They seem to have a short life span lately.

He presents some reasonable evidence to support his "false" conclusion.

Do I trust him explicitly? Nope. I fact check the basis for Snopes' conclusions, how 'bout that?

It's a rough neighborhood, so maybe it's just a coincidence. An odd one.

Fine, tell me how you know Shawn Gray, and DeAndre Joshua were witnesses. We know they're dead. Prove they were witnesses and I'll buy your facts.

I have dopey liberal friends who scoff at anything I cite, IF it comes from Fox News.

Now I guess I also have conservative friends who scoff at anything I cite if it comes from Snopes.

I'd like to think that the facts of ANY situation are visible and available to both sides of the political spectrum. Bias merely distorts the facts.

Please provide a more accurate fact-checking source. In this case provide one that shows Snopes is all wet on this dead witness matter.

I'm happy to abandon Snopes if you can show me he is in fact, full of shite.
