Almost a month ago the grand jury in the case against Darren Wilson decided not to indict the police officer. This decision was met with loud protests and many claims that things were not done the right way in this case. Now it appears that the evidence was not handled properly throughout the case.
The main complaint seems to be that the prosecutor did not handle the case properly. One of the main jobs of a prosecutor is to put reliable witnesses on the stand. Most of the time this is not a problem.
But after evidence came out that one of the witnesses was never at the scene of the crime and clearly lied there are serious doubts that the prosecutor acted properly. Bob McCulloch, the prosecuting attorney, has admitted to putting any witness on the stand that had a story to tell. He seemed completely unworried about the fact that he put witnesses that he knew were lying on the stand.
He stated recently that he feels that it is the Grand Jury’s job to sort out the truth. Unfortunately for him, it is the prosecutors job to make sure that witnesses are telling the truth before putting them on the stand. It is becoming increasingly clear that Bob McCulloch did not act properly in the case of Darren Wilson.
Many people are starting to believe that McCulloch purposely presented a confusing case because he knew he could get away with it and he wanted to avoid an indictment
