St. Louis County, MO prosecutor, Wesley Bell, who is Black, will not be charging officer Darren Wilson, who is White, for the shooting of Michael Brown, who was Black, in a case that appears to be a black and white.
Wilson shot 18-year-old Brown in 2014. The investigation was quietly re-opened because Brown was Black and Wilson is White and this fits the left's narrative of police brutality. Had Brown been White and Wilson been Black, there would have been no media coverage of the incident in the first place.
However, in spite of all this, there will be no charges leveled on Wilson, which dashes the hopes of Bell, who became the county's first Black prosecutor in January 2019 in spite of "systemic racism." Michael Brown's mother is also disappointed that Wilson was not charged for defending his own life when Brown went for the officer's gun.
The "hands up, don't shoot" narrative was just a lie--it never happened, but it sparked riots and gave White people the chance to virtue signal, and Black people the chance to show their support for Brown.
Bell told reporters today that his decision was “one of the most difficult things I’ve had to do."

Why was it difficult if it was the right decision? It could only mean that Bell was hoping to find evidence to indict Wilson, which means that he was biased without being privy to the evidence.
This new investigation took five months of delving into the evidence, witness statements and forensic reports, until Bell concluded that "we cannot prove that he" committed murder or manslaughter.
Because he likely was just doing his job and then defending his life.
Unfortunately, the aftermath of the incident helped put the [semantic overloaded] Black Lives Matter Marxist Movement on the map.
After a federal investigation, a grand jury cleared officer Wilson of all charges, but he was forced to leave the force.
Brown, accompanied by his friend, had just left a shop where he stole some cigars. He was walking in the middle of the street in a residential neighborhood. He was told to get out of the the street by Wilson, when Brown approached the police vehicle and went for Wilson's weapon. In the entire altercation, which lasted about 90 seconds, Wilson fired a total of twelve bullets, six of which struck Brown in the front of his body.
Witnesses lied and said Brown, who was unarmed because Wilson wouldn't let him take his gun, had his hands up when he was shot, but federal investigators and the grand jury said the evidence showed otherwise.
“Although this case represents one of the most significant moments in St. Louis’s history, the question for this office was a simple one: Could we prove beyond a reasonable doubt that when Darren Wilson shot Michael Brown he committed murder or manslaughter under Missouri law?” Bell said during a press conference Thursday.
“After an independent and in-depth review of the evidence, we cannot prove that he did.”
Bell noted that just because Wilson was not found guilty of murder or manslaughter, he had not been exonerated, mainly because he is White and Brown was Black and this is media catnip.
“There are so many points at which Darren Wilson could have handled the situation differently and if he had, Michael Brown might still be alive,” Bell told reporters. Statements like that are easy to say when you're not the one who is defending your own life.
