Updated: scroll down for documentarian having COMPLETE MELTDOWN ON FOX – and St. Louis County prosecutor shutting that shit down.
In a feat of mental gymnastics by a guy who would be working at a Sprint store if his last name weren’t Cuomo, Chris – son of former NY Governor Mario Cuomo, made complete ass on live TV earlier today.
But first, to bring you up to speed…
If you recall the Mike Brown controversy in which Ferguson, MO police officer Darren Wilson shot 18 year old Michael Brown after Brown was seen roughing up a clerk who tried to stop him from walking out of the store with merchandise.

According to police reports, officer Wilson responded to report of a “stealing in progress” by an armed suspect. When Wilson arrived and encountered Brown and a friend, conflicting witness reports emerged. According to some, Mike Brown had his hands up and was executed by Wilson. Another witness, a 53 year old black male, said Mike Brown responded to police by uttering “fuck the police.” When officer Wilson approached Brown, Brown hit Wilson in the face. When Wilson went for his gun, Brown attempted to grab it – which is when he was shot (see all the facts in the case here, with latter account on P.32).
The shooting sparked nation-wide outrage, and when officer Darren Wilson was not indicted – mass protests ensued.
A new development in the case has emerged which changes the narrative somewhat – a documentary showing Mike Brown trading a bag of weed for some cigarellos the night before the shooting, suggesting Brown had some sort of an understanding with the convenience store, or at least some of it’s employees. This opens the door for the argument that when Brown robbed the store the next day, he may have been operating under some sort of agreement that the clerk in the original video was not aware of.

And Martha McCallum pwning the filmmaker:

While discussing the semantics of the drug deal on CNN – host Chris Cuomo tries to explain that simply because Mike Brown dealt drugs in exchange for merchandise, it doesn’t make him a drug dealer.
Chris Cuomo doesn't know what a drug dealer is. ?https://t.co/6b47T9yLyv pic.twitter.com/hcHWWIisa9

Sorry Chris – it does. You dumb.
Just when you think this guy cannot possibly top some of his previous statements he proves you wrong. Would enjoy seeing Tucker carve him up.
Wonder if this they got this new info from Trumps phones that were tapped, oh wait.
But on a more serious not, that actually is an interesting question. I don’t know if he was a drug dealer or not, and honestly it’s completely irrelevant to the case. However, not sure trading some weed for cigarettes makes you a drug dealer. Two high school dumb asses are hanging out. One orders a pizza, and the other has no cash just some weed. He offers to smoke/ give him some for some of the pizza. Does that make him a drug dealer? If so, we have a lot of drug dealers.
The District Attorney in St Louis has already debunked the alleged claims in this “documentary.” Per the DA, the documentary ” is an attempt to generate 15 minutes of fame.” “There was no transaction between Mr. Brown and the store employees” and the video in the documentary was “highly edited” and “what this guy is putting out is just nonsense.”

And here is the unhinged “filmmaker” and the response by the DA.
