Finding the location of Dorian Johnson mere minutes after the shooting of “Big Mike” Brown has profound implications toward understanding the events that took place when Officer Darren Wilson shot “Big Mike” Brown in Ferguson Missouri.
Initially during our research we identified Dorian in the Northwestern quadrant of the Canfield apartment complex nearby the three witnesses who made the New York Media circuit: Tiffany Mitchell, Piaget Crenshaw and Michael Brady.
This quadrant was where most of the broadcast media footage was taken during the immediate aftermath to the shooting. This was also where Dorian, Tiffany and Piaget gave their initial media interviews with the guidance of activist, Anthony Shahid, and Mike Brown cousin, Calvin Ewings.
Finding Dorian amid this crowd helped us to understand the origin of the “Hands Up” narrative. But that initial Dorian interview was an hour after the shooting – with a considerable crowd around, and after a second phase police perimeter was established.
However, Treeper LJP has identified a much earlier position of Dorian Johnson which is vitally important to understanding other pieces of the puzzle.
