Secret Court Juror Complains

They misled us: Ferguson grand juror sues claiming prosecutor 'muddled' case in favor of Darren Wilson and fights to lift lifetime gag order

Suit also challenges McCulloch's public 'implication that all grand jurors believed that there was no support for any charges' following the no vote

'The public characterization of the grand jurors' view of witnesses and evidence does not accord with Plaintiff's own,' reads the suit

The juror alleges McCulloch presented the case differently from all the hundreds of others the panel heard

Juror contends 'heavy redactions and absence of context' mean publicly released evidence mischaracterizes what jurors were presented

And in other police news:

"A hulking brute grabbed a 28-year-old MTA employee up in a bear hug at a Bronx train station, shoved her onto the platform and began choking her in an unprovoked attack – then ran away smiling, authorities said Wednesday."

...the culprit was a police officer:

In this case, rather than investigating the actions of the officers, the Dayton-area Beavercreek PD strove to find some way to blame the victim for the shooting. Tasha Thomas, the Crawford’s traumatized girlfriend, was detained andinterrogated for over an hour and a half by Beavercreek Detective Rodney Curd, who did everything he could to manipulate her into saying that Crawford was carrying an actual firearm. To that end Curd followed standard police procedure by lying to Thomas and threatening her with criminal charges unless she supplied him with the story he wanted.
I want to assure everyone reading that that I do not believe the US is a police state.
