From one of the Today Show’s Legal Analyst Lisa Bloom’s tweets while reading Ferguson Grand Jury transcripts:
1st GJ witness, medical-legal investigator, name redacted. Didn't take crime scene photos because camera batteries were dead.

What the hell kind of investigation is it that says “Oops, camera batteries dead. Well, no matter. Carry on.”?
This link is to a storified chain of all the tweets she posted while reading the transcripts, citing discrepancies and noting prosecutorial misconduct. Here’s her conclusion:
An attorney who does not aggressively cross-examine the target of an investigation is an attorney who does not want to get to the truth.

If the saying goes “”a grand jury would ‘indict a ham sandwich,’if that’s what you wanted,” then the converse must also be true: a grand jury won’t indict a killer if you don’t want it to.” It seems pretty clear that Prosecutor Bob McCulloch didn’t want to indict Darren Wilson for the killing of Michael Brown.
Yes, exactly.
Sometimes you wonder why these people think no one will look over their shoulders about these transgressions.
