later today nbc news confirmed darren wilson was treated for injuries. we know wilson was taken to an area hospital. we don't know if he was admitted. it is not clear how serious the injuries were, but if you listen to bill o'reilly who is so upset about all of the coverage that he came back from vacation, but he hasn't gone to ferguson, if you listen to all of these news reports you would think that this guy was near death. he was badly beaten. he was almost unconscious. for more, let me bring in brown family attorney darryl parks and also ring of fire radio host and america's attorney mark papantonio. gentlemen, thanks for your time tonight. mr. parks, you first. what is happening in the media here? well, they continue to distort it. it's funny you mentioned fox and they asked me about this so-called eye injury that may have taken place, and let me be the first to say that there certainly was some type of altercation within the car that happened there, but i think this is a distraction from the real situation. the real deal is that that happened in the

the that officer's name darron wilson. there was an incident report on an alleged convenience store robbery and video purportly showing brown doing the crime, allegedly stealing small cigars and brown shoving a clerk. they call it a strong armed robbery. there were mixed messages from the police department. earlier in the day, police chief thomas jackson laid out a timeline that left the impression officer

my name is darren wilson and we are darren wilson. thank you. >> it was two weeks ago that darren wilson shot michael brown is six times according to the autopsy reports. we still don't know what has happened. he has gone into hiding, and a fund topping $30,000 this week to support him. we know there is a lot of backlash are from this side of the fence, and in fact, saying that the media coverage has been unfair. what is the mood at the rally today? >> sure. we have been treated pretty well here today, i'd have to say. the rally here altogether is peaceful. you can see the demonstrators here in support of officer wilson lining the side waublg, and this one says it is about the rule of law. they feel it is about fairness. they feel that officer wilson has been prejudged in the media, and they believe it is their time, and it is their responsibility to come out to show support and solidarity for the man they believe was in the right. you heard the sound bite from the lead organizer who declined to the give her name because of death thre

officer darren wilson. zach, what are you hearing? >> reporter: well, i was outside the justice center there and there is and ongoing protest with members of the black community, continuing to insist that the prosecutor should step down, should recuse himself from this investigation because they feel he can't be impartial thanks to his ties to the police and his past record. so they're continuing to say that the grand jury met today, there was at one point a counter protester showed up, she said she didn't know darren wilson personally, but she believes there has been a rush to judgment and there was a brief confrontation with protestors. she was eventually led away. and calm returned. so that is the scene there. >> and are you seeing any reaction to skra nijay nixon sa will not assist in the evident effort to push out the prosecutor? >> reporter: this morning in a radio interview, the prosecutor had a harsh response, he called it nixonian double speak and he should man up and either support him fully or remove him. he said that's up

a source telling fox news.com officer wilson was badly beaten. trace ghallager has more. >> the source is close to the ferguson police, telling fox news.com hollow mckay the confrontation began when officer wilson ordered michael brown and his friend to stop walking in the middle of the street because they're blocking traffic. they ignored the officer, he started to get out of the patrol car, but quote, they shoved him in. brown leans in and starts beating officer wilson in the head and face. he was beaten severely the source tell uz us brown fractured officer wilson's eye socket and now, a man named michael t brady has come forward with this account. telling the "new york times," quote, something was not right. it was some kind of altercation. i can't say whether he was pufrning the officer or whatever but something was going on in the window and it didn't look right the source goes on to say there was a struggle for wilson's gun, and it went off, and authorities have proof brown actually touched the officer's gun. the source won't say on the re

>> darren wilson. >> what is his name. >> darren wilson. >> what's his name? >> darren wilson. >> who do we want? >> darren wilson. >> how do we want him? >> dead. >> who do we want? >> darren wilson. >> how do we want him? >> dead. >> i understand the community upset about an 18-year-old kid that is now dead. i want to get to the truth here but in like every other high profile case, what is your reaction to that? >> you listen to it, of course, you can imagine my reaction to it, if the citizens of ferguson, missouri and the united states want law enforcement to simply do nothing, then my advice to my brother officers is put your ipod on and drift through your career. certainly he's not the answer. that's what the public wants, i have no idea why somebody would want to become a police officer in the environment and the way they're treated. they're treated like dirt. >> mark fuhrman, thank you. >>> coming up tonight, a lot more news. david webb spoke to the protesters on the streets of ferguson a short time ago. we'll show you what they had to say straight ahea

and obviously officer wilson has supporters. does it surprise you, though, that he hasn't spoken or that other people around him haven't spoken, other than this alleged friend who called into the radio show? or is that a wise thing right now to lay low? >> i don't think it's unwise. i'm a little surprised more people haven't spoken on his behalf. and i think there's some reticence to do that because of the situation there and because there's so much -- or there was so much violence, no one really wanted to incite any more of that. but i think he's got a constituency and he's got support and he's got -- depending on where and if this case is brought, he's got -- if it is brought, i think he's got a built-in base of support. >> you know, it's remarkable to me. he's raised over $200,000 and he has all these supporters. we haven't heard from him. we haven't seen a police incident report that hasn't been heavily redacted. and so all of these people are jumping on the officer wilson bandwagon with what information? and i think, at thi

let's assume in the best case of officer wilson he knew. he knew about the robbery, conflicting evidence on whether he knew or did not know. and let's assume they had a scuffle in the car that we put on michael brown. >> and punched him allegedly. >> and went for his gun. totally inappropriate. and a felony. let's assume that happened. then michael brown starts running away from him. and this is the part i keep stopping on. it's a bad situation at the car. bad. if michael brown did that stuff, it's bad. it's a crime. but then he was running away. so could the cop argue he went for my gun, i was afraid for my life, he hurt me and so i reasonably believed even though he was running away from he he was going to go hurt somebody else or the threat to me was not over. >> hands up, don't shoot. megyn, that is the key issue. >> i'm one step before that. i agree with you if he's got hands up, don't shoot, the cop's done. but take it back one step prior to that. can the cops shoot the guy if he can prove all that stuff i just said but michael brown

now, some suspect wilson of murder and a grand jury is hearing the case. also, attorney general eric holder went to ferguson missouri today to meet with fbi agents and state authorities who are conducting separate investigations. good. the feds should look into this case. and their investigation should be transparent. that is americans should get hard information as it comes out. which brings us to this video of mr. brown stealing from a convenience store and pushing the clerk around. agitators call the release of the video a smear against michael brown and his family. further inflaming the situation. but facts are not smears. and this goes to mr. brown's state of mind on the day he was killed. americans have a right to know what happened leading up to the shooting. you don't suppress an important piece of information in a case like this when only one side of the story is being reported by the media. which is generally terrified of any racial situation. then there is the looting, disgraceful. and one guy, even has a gun, all right? shoots the lock off the

if you support darren wilson, make your voices heard. >> reporter: they also say wilson was justified in defending himself when he fatally shot michael brown two weeks ago. they believe that the evidence will show that as it continues to come out. an online fund-raising campaign has already raised more than $300,000 for officer wilson's family as well, and they are going to continue this rally, they say, all throughout today and tomorrow as well. molly? >> you've been there on the ground. how does last night's peaceful protest compare to what we've been seeing in the last week or so ago? >> reporter: well, i've got to tell you it's are really night and day what we saw last night versus what we saw a week ago and for much of the last two weeks. the protests were very peaceful. there was not a single arrest. the first time in nearly two weeks that's happened. but don't let that fool you. there are still very high tensions in the area. even earlier today, a supporter of michael brown was here and was yelling at police officers here, asking them why is it that they haven't shot y'all. so

earlier it was in support of david wilson, the officer that shot michael brown. diane eastabrook was there and has more. >> reporter: under a scorching sun they waived placards and displayed peace signs. backers of ferguson police officer david wilson. >> support him because he's innocent until proven guilty. and the media is trying to convict him. organizers say it's a way to provide financial and emotional support to wilson, who has remained in hiding since shooting brown two weeks ago. >> we share the belief that officer wilson's accesses were warranted and justified and he has our support. >> donors have contributed 300,000 to wilson through two websites. online fund rising netted $200,000 for brown's family. the rally for wilson is drawing locals, and supporters from illinois, like this woman. >> i haven't met an officer that i did not like. i appreciate the job they do, and i'm here to thank them. >> reporter: a brown supporter showed up to blast law enforcement for the way they handled protesters supporting the slain teen. >> they come out with guns. we ar

so will a swollen face save darren wilson from indictment? we have a full report on this as well as that crucial kill shot to mike brown's head. but first we go to the ground in ferguson and our stephanie elam. a group starting to gather at the location where michael brown was shot and killed. what is the mood tonight? >> right. if you look out here, you can see that people are out here. they're gathering. you can see the location where mike brown was shot. there's a memorial that has continued to grow out here. and people are starting to gather. we understand that people are coming out to apologize for the violence that may have occurred here over the last few days and some of the looting. we're waiting to see exactly how that plays out, but we're keeping our eyes, as this gathering here continues to grow. very peaceful, very quiet. nothing really loud or anything going on here. but we're waiting to see exactly what happened. they'll ask for the police to apologize as well. >> that's interesting that there could be an apology for the looting

wilson fell for it. the main other point is, because european historian, is the hungaryian empire was destroyed. a major political, economic, and structure for europe, for the ages, created seven countries that could not exist nationalism was the key. and this, if you go back to what earlier, if germany becomes a great power of the oviet uni, these countries are there for the picking. because they were nationalistic, at least one/third of other races within them. they all wanted to rule on their own. ilson never visited the battlefields once. never understood what the with war was about. and i hate to say it, lloyd clemens still came out the winners at versailles. >> to fully understand the war's impact on the current war, it's important to take a closer look years that four world war won. how to describe that war? history channel asks some historians and authors to give it a try in one word. >> if i had to choose one word world war i, it would be cataclysmic. describe e word to world war i would be cata

president wilson was against this. gas generaleneral john j burgeoning whose name is all over kansas city. he said you will not fight as an independent army, you'll find is the american army. if you need to help out the other belligerents, so be it. wilson never visited the battlefields. he sent secretary of war baker over there are couple of times. he would report back to him. he didn't care staff wilson didn't care so much about the fighting. he cared about what would happen once the war was over. >> the united states government created an incredible propaganda machine to generate support for the war effort amongst many segments of the american population which was incredibly skeptical. you have the committee of public information, which was created by george creel which produces this remarkable machine of government-sponsored propaganda. you also have a strong element of government repression as well . american support for the war was the worst. you have one of the darker aspects of american involvement in the war i

he didn't care staff wilson -- care. wilson didn't care so much about the fighting. he cared about what would happen once the war was over. >> the united states government created an incredible propaganda machine to generate support for the war effort amongst many segments of the american population which was incredibly skeptical. you have the committee of public information, which was created by george creel which produces this remarkable machine of government-sponsored propaganda. you also have a strong element of government repression as well. american support for the war was the worst. you have one of the darker aspects of american involvement in the war is a tremendous suppression of civil liberties which took lace. restrictions of freedom of the press. there was a whole element to american involvement in the war, which in some ways counter to the democratic idealism that woodrow wilson was propagating. >> i would also like to mention capitalism, because we do live in america. the united states government loaned money to britain. britain lost gold reserves, but

louis county came in and interviewed officer wilson. they've interviewed him twice, once immediately right after and then a little while afterwards. we don't know exactly what that says. he did not produce a report which is what they say is they're common protocol. >> and union representatives i believe and lawyers tell police officers in situations like this don't file a police report. >> the right, exactly. then you'll have multiple accounts and maybe things that will conflict with each other and you don't want that. you know, for that to come back in in a trial. >> also, i would imagine, self-incrimination and a little cya. any lawyer would say that. >> exactly. you have detectives doing the investigation so it turns noose from your police officer to now you're being treated as a suspect basically. >> very interesting. evan, thank you. coming up, the money pouring in as thousands donate to a fund for officer darren wilson. will that growing support have an impact on the community here in ferguson? plus the defense secretary says it i

gun that weren't officer wilson's, right? >> i mean, from a forensic science point of view, yes, that's correct. and those are things that the authorities investigating the car, the equipment by used by the officer involved, they really need to look at those details. the thing is, again, to reiterate is that we hope that they're doing a very thorough investigation of the car, of -- and the events that occurred during the shooting. and being able to reconstruct those and be able to collaborate that with information from the autopsy and filter out what witnesses' statements make sense and don't. i think that's when you're actually going to really be able to piece together what occurred. >> numerous witnesses say that brown's arms were up. the universal sign of surrender. it's a chant here on the streets of ferguson, hands up, don't shoot. does the trajectory of the gunshot wounds from the autopsy support the idea that his hands were in the air? >> well, the one gunshot wound, if you remember correctly that i pointed out at the

now, some suspect wilson of murder and a grand jury is hearing the case. also, attorney general eric holder went to ferguson missouri today to meet with fbi agents and state authorities who are conducting separate investigations. good. the feds should look into this case. and their investigation should be transparent. that is americans should get hard information as it comes out. which brings us to this video of mr. brown stealing from a convenience store and pushing the clerk around. agitators call the release of the video a smear against michael brown and his family. further inflaming the situation. but facts are not smears. and this goes to mr. brown's state of mind on the day he was killed. americans have a right to know what happened leading up to the shooting. you don't suppress an important piece of information in a case like this when only one side of the story is being reported by the media. which is generally terrified of any racial situation. then there is the looting, disgraceful. and one guy, even has a gun, all right? shoots the lock off the

brown rushed the at the officer full speed so wilson started shooting. but some witnesses say brown had his hands up in the air in surrenderer. so michael brown had several bullet wounds here and here. if you were doing an autopsy and looking at the body, could you tell whether he was up like this or whether he was charging at someone? can you figure that out on an autopsy? >> no. >> reporter: and an autopsy might not help with this, either, why brown had a gunshot wound right at the top of his head. how would that happen? >> very likely the victim was bent over like this. >> reporter: why would someone be bent over like that? >> they are either dodging or maybe trying to run. >> reporter: michael brown's first autopsy was done by the county, the second commissioned by his family, the third completed monday by the federal government. this is now the third autopsy that's been done and it seems like a lot of people are putting hope that it will help answer some of these questions and solve some of these arguments. do you think it will? >> no, it will be --

aparentally the officer, darren wilson, was in the neighborhood. he had responded to a different call of some sort. so he then got in his car and started heading towards the quick trip where the suspects were supposed to be heading. apparently, that's around the time he encountered michael brown and dorian johnson. that's where the details end. what we do know though from the new documents that were just released is that from the time that the officer reportedly encountered michael brown and dorian johnson until the time another officer arrived on scene after michael brown had already been shot was just three minutes. so very quick, time line of events here. we're hearing from protesters anger regarding that information being released. saying now we know about the robbery which makes michael brown look like a suspect. in their words, he is being villainized. and yet he's a shooting victim. and we're not hearing anything about that incident. those details. and so there's still a lot of frustration about the lack of information in this, wolf. >> are

if officer wilson was wrong, so be it. if mr. brown was wrong, so be it. >> we'll see what the grand jury decides. richard weinblatt, thanks as usual. i'll be right back. we are born makers. we make inspiring things... that go beyond the expected and get people talking. things that make you wonder... ...how you ever lived without them. the all-new chrysler 200. america's import >>> we are following the horrific developments in the fight against isis. international outrage over the brutal beheading of american journalist james foley. a video appears to be foley's brutal execution, the video was so gruesome, we can only show you these still images. isis says the killing is payback for u.s. air strikes in iraq and isis is threatening to kill a second american journalist seen here if u.s. military action in iraq continues. cnn's athena jones is in washington, she has more for you. >> reporter: freelance journalist james foley has been killed by members of the islamic state of iraq and syria, or isis. foley disappeared in northwest sy

want to get more on officer darren wilson. we turn to our very own brian todd in washington for that. what have we learned about the officer? >> since friday when his name was revealed we've learned a few bits and pieces. he is 18 years old. a six-year police officer. four of those years with the ferguson police. he according to a friend, who we spoke to on the friend, the friend did not want to be named because this friend says he's been getting death threats, but this friend told us officer wilson got divorced last year. that he has a child from that marriage. but when i asked if officer wilson has any racist tendencies, if he'd ever displayed anything like that, this friend said, quote, absolutely not, he's not the type of person who would do that in public or in private with friends. there you have a picture from a facebook page of officer wilson getting a commendation there with the police department. this friend told me that he had spoken to officer wilson briefly since the shooting of michael brown. i asked about office

brown rushed at the officer full speed so wilson started shooting. but some witnesses say brown had his arms up in the air in surrender. >> so michael brown had several bullet wounds here and here. if you were doing an autopsy and looking at the body, could you tell whether he was up like this? or whether he was charging at someone? can you, can you figure that out on an autopsy? >> no. >> reporter: and an autopsy might not help with this either. why brown had a gunshot wound right at the top of his head. how would that happen? >> very likely that he was, the victim was bent over like this. >> and why would someone be bent over like that? >> they're either dodging or maybe trying to run. >> reporter: michael brown's first autopsy was done by the county, the second commissioned by his family, the third completed monday by the federal government. >> this is now the third autopsy that's been done. and it seems like a lot of people are putting hope that it will help answer some of these questions and solve the arguments. do you think it will? >> no. it w

and that officer wilson suffered severe facial injuries. and that's not all. trace gallagher picks up the story from there. trace. >> megyn, that source is very close to the ferguson police who tells foxnews.com's holly mccay the confrontation began when officer darren wilson ordered michael brown and his friend dorian johnson to stop walking in the middle of the street because they were blocking traffic. when they ignored the officer, they started to get out of his patrol car but "they shoved him right back in. that's when brown leans in and starts beating officer wilson in the head and face. he was beaten very severely." the source tells us that brown fractured officer wilson's eye socket leaving him dazed and swollen. and now a man named michael t. brady who lives near where the shooting took place has come forward with this account telling the "new york times," "something was not right, it was some kind of altercation. i can't say whether he was punching the officer or whatever, but something was going on in that window. and it didn't look right." our sour

darren wilson lives here on this street in another st. louis suburb about 25 miles away from the town of ferguson. many neighbors are reluctant to talk about him but they say since last weekend's shooting they've seen a great deal of police activity here in the nablg and several neighbors also say darren wilson left here several days ago. jake shepperd went to high school and played hockey with darren wilson. he described the officer as a quiet guy. >> i can say without speaking to darren without even having heard his statements that at that moment in time he was scared for his life. i am 100% positive of that because i could never imagine him even in that situation taking someone's life let alone taking someone's life with malicious intent, you know. he's just the last person on earth you would think to do something like that. >> reporter: officer wilson now has an attorney and a law enforcement source tells cnn wilson has been interviewed twice by detectives once right after the shooting and a second more in-depth interview later but th
