Source: Cop Who Killed Mike Brown Was Severely Beaten During Confrontation An unnamed “source” close to the Ferguson PD has come forward to now claim that police office Darren Wilson, who fatally down unarmed teenager Mike Brown by shooting him six times following a confrontation, was badly injured during their scuffle. Funny how this information was not initially revealed… via Fox News Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo., police officer whose fatal shooting of Michael Brown touched off more than a week of demonstrations, suffered severe facial injuries, including an orbital (eye socket) fracture, and was nearly beaten unconscious by Brown moments before firing his gun, a source close to the department’s top brass told FoxNews.com. “The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.” According to the well-placed source, Wilson was coming off another case in the neighborhood on Aug. 9 when he ordered Michael Brown and his friend Dorain Johnson to stop walking in the middle of the road because they were obstructing traffic. However, the confrontation quickly escalated into physical violence, the source said.. “They ignored him and the officer started to get out of the car to tell them to move,” the source said. “They shoved him right back in, that’s when Michael Brown leans in and starts beating Officer Wilson in the head and the face. The source claims that there is “solid proof” that there was a struggle between Brown and Wilson for the policeman’s firearm, resulting in the gun going off – although it still remains unclear at this stage who pulled the trigger. Brown started to walk away according to the account, prompting Wilson to draw his gun and order him to freeze. Brown, the source said, raised his hands in the air, and turned around saying, “What, you’re going to shoot me?” At that point, the source told FoxNews.com, the 6 foot, 4 inch, 292-pound Brown charged Wilson, prompting the officer to fire at least six shots at him, including the fatal bullet that penetrated the top of Brown’s skull, according to an independent autopsy conducted at the request of Brown’s family. Wilson suffered a fractured eye socket in the fracas, and was left dazed by the initial confrontation, the source said. He is now “traumatized, scared for his life and his family, injured and terrified” that a grand jury, which began hearing evidence on Wednesday, will “make some kind of example out of him,” the source said. The source also said the dashboard and body cameras, which might have recorded crucial evidence, had been ordered by Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson, but had only recently arrived and had not yet been deployed. St. Louis County police, who have taken over the investigation, did not return requests for comment about possible injuries suffered by Wilson. Edward Magee, spokesman for St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCullough, said the office will not disclose the nature of the evidence it will reveal to a grand jury. “We’ll present every piece of evidence we have, witness statements, et cetera, to the grand jury, and we do not release any evidence or talk about evidence on the case.” Nabil Khattar, CEO of 7Star Industries – which specializes in firearms training for law enforcement and special operations personnel – confirmed that police are typically instructed to use deadly force if in imminent danger of being killed or suffering great bodily injury. “You may engage a threat with enough force that is reasonably necessary to defend against that danger,” he said. Wilson is a six-year veteran of the Ferguson police force department, and has no prior disciplinary infringements. Massive protests have since taken over the St. Louis community, prompting Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon last Thursday to place Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson at the helm of security operations in an effort to calm ongoing tensions. The federal government is also investigating the death, and Attorney General Eric Holder has taken the lead – calling “the selective release of sensitive information” in the case “troubling.” On Friday, Ferguson police released surveillance video showing Brown stealing cigars from a convenience store just before his death. Jackson came under intense criticism for disclosing the tape and a related police report as he also insisted that the alleged robbery and the encounter with Wilson were unrelated matters. Brown’s family, through their attorney, suggested the tape’s release was a strategic form of “character assassination.” However, FoxNews.com’s source insisted that there was absolutely no spin agenda behind the tape’s release and that there were a number of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) media requests filed by media outlets seeking it. Tom Jackson is said to have waited on publicly releasing it, and did not want it shown until Brown’s grieving mother first had the chance to see it. “He defied the FOIAs as long as he could,” noted the insider. “A powerful, ugly spin has completely ruined public discourse on this whole situation.” Sounds like Darren Wilson and his team will be taking a page out of the George Zimmerman “how to be an aint-isht human being” handbook to build a case for the upcoming trial. We can only imagine what previously unknown “information” they will come forward with next. SMH. #JUSTICEFORMIKEBROWN
Kanye can’t let Kim have anything . Kim And Kanye At War Over Baby Fashion Line Kanye controls her hair, her womb and her menstrual cycle….can she live? According to Radar Online Kim Kardashian and Kanye West‘s daughter North is only a few months old, and the couple already has another baby: a secret kiddie clothing line! But what started as a fun project for the new parents has turned into a huge source of tension for the pair, and only RadarOnline.com has all the details of the fashion fight. Shortly after Kim gave birth to “Nori” in June, “Kanye encouraged her to pursue her own baby clothes line,” an insider tells RadarOnline.com. “He thought it was a great way for her to be taken a little more seriously and cut the cord with her family. He wants her to establish a new career away from reality TV and this is how they think she can do it.” So Kanye set up meetings for Kim with his fashionista friends like fashion editor Carine Roitfeld and Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci, his BFF. “Kim really threw herself into it because she loves fashion and also because it makes Kanye happy,” the source says. “She seems desperate for him to respect her and approve of her.” But unfortunately for Kim, “control freak” Kanye won’t let her handle it on her own, the source claims. “He opened doors for her where they were once shut, which is great,” according to the insider, “but now he’s giving her his two cents on everything and it’s driving Kim crazy. The truth of the matter is that he doesn’t think Kim has good style and he knows whatever she produces will be a direct reflection on him. He doesn’t trust her to do her own thing.” Control freak! West already made over his girlfriend months ago, famously throwing out the majority of clothes in her closet. Now, instead of looking to stores like Bebe and Sears for inspiration — both places the Kardashians have sold inexpensive clothing lines in the past — West wants Kardashian to focus on an “extremely high-end and expensive” look for the baby line, says the source. “He wants her to use Givenchy, Celine, and Lanvin as inspirations for her sketches.” “Kim does, but she says she wants to use Nori as her ‘muse’ and translate her own favorite outfits into ones for the baby,” the source reveals. “So far, it’s just all kinds of wrong and Kanye is constantly correcting her on how to dress Nori.” Pushed to her limit, Kardashian recently fought back, the source says. “Kim joked to Kanye that he should give up music for a full-time job in fashion but it didn’t go over well,” the insider says. “Nobody, including Kim, speaks to Kanye like that, especially if they don’t want to see his temper. Kanye snapped at her over it.” “Of course Kim just backed down after that,” the source sniffs. “And now she’s suddenly obsessed with creating minimal, fashion-forward outfits for kids. Which just happens to be exactly Kanye’s style.” Currently designing custom-made clothes for Nori, Kim could make the transition to a full-blown fashion line over the next year, according to the source. “Kim says she knows her image is pretty set, but she’s hoping that she can play off Nori to move into high-fashion design circles,” the source explains. Kanye’s already helping her to do that, but this would further erase her trashy past and make her even more money at the same time.” Kanye seems a little too into fashion for a man. It ain’t that serious, it’s a baby fashion line – they will throw up food all over those designer clothes. AKM-GSI Continue reading →
The sudden firing of Selma Blair from Charlie Sheen‘s Anger Management has prompted a lot of speculation regarding why she was shown the door. Rumors indicated that Blair complained to colleagues behind Sheen’s back about his work ethic, but a new report says it was more complicated than that. According to Radar , Blair’s complaints about Charlie were to someone outside of the show, and a chain of gossip brought the information back to Sheen. That led to Charlie getting Selma Blair fired , a decision made in part because he was “incredibly attracted” to his co-star, which made him feel betrayed. “He loved her,” a source familiar with their relationship said. “They grew very close. When it came time to cast for his new show he wanted her.” “He was crazy about her. Call it lust at the very least .” “As the show began Sheen was still highly attracted to Selma. Call it flirtatious or whatever you want, but his feelings were obvious. He thought there was chemistry.” But Sheen and Blair had mutual friends and one of those friends sabotaged her with him, after she allegedly talked smack, leading to his outburst. “Charlie has reverted to his usual behavior on the set,” the source revealed. “He is late, sometimes he is hours late. The whole cast is bothered by it.” “There have even been times when he sits in the car for approximately an hour outside of the studio making everyone wait, just because he can.” Blair was upset and so were other people on the show, but, the source insists, she did NOT complain to execs or anyone associated with the show. “You don’t talk behind someone’s back when you work with them. With Charlie if you have an issue, you go directly to him,” the source said. Blair, however, complained about the star to a close friend and divulged details of his behavior, which got back to him, and Charlie Sheen was enraged . “Charlie was furious when it got back to him,” the source said. “It didn’t happen all at once. When he first heard about it, things changed on the show.” “Suddenly his character was no longer sleeping with her character.” Call it art imitating life.
Looks like Jenelle Evans and Amber Portwood have company. Kailyn Lowry of Teen Mom 2 recently revealed that she has bipolar disorder. “My mom is bipolar and it turns out I am too,” she said in a recent interview.

As for her bipolar diagnosis , Kailyn Lowry says she will soon be taking medication to help keep it under control. We wish her nothing but the best.
Lindsay Lohan is desperately trying to hire a new defense attorney, despite having fired Shawn Holley and replaced him with Mark Heller just weeks ago. The actress reportedly ” despises ” Heller, prompting her to hunt for another replacement. Finding one may prove a difficult task for her, however. “Lindsay has been on the phone calling criminal defense attorneys in Los Angeles trying to hire someone new to represent her,” a source revealed. “She called four other top DUI attorneys, and every one turned her down … one even had his assistant call Lindsay back and say he wasn’t interested.” Lindsay Lohan fired Shawn Holley , her longtime lawyer, earlier this month and was represented by Heller on Wednesday; her next court date is in March. The 26-year-old faces charges of lying to police following her summer car crash in L.A., as well as the probation violation this may have triggered. “Lindsay is absolutely stunned that this is happening to her,” the source said about the train wreck being turned down repeatedly by top lawyers. “The [legal community has] a tremendous amount of respect for Shawn Holley, and they know that Lindsay owes her hundreds of thousands of dollars.” “Therefore they want nothing to do with her.” Some of the lawyers view representing LiLo as more trouble than its worth, the source said, and believe she will regret firing Holley for a long, long time. Even Judge Stephanie Sautner seemed to suggest as much, asking her if she really wanted to drop Holley in favor of Heller at this stage of the game. Lindsay said: “Yes, for today.” Sautner told her this action was not just for Wednesday but going forward. Lindsay tersely replied, “yes, going forward.” Somewhat ironically, it’s Heller’s love for publicity and media that is “highly irritating” to Lindsay, the source told celebrity gossip site Radar Online . “[Holley’s] rule was to just lay it all out in court, and leave it at that,” the source said. “Mark had a press conference after he met with prosecutors in the case.” Heller previously had his law license suspended five years for misconduct; even Michael Lohan has spoken out forcefully against Heller representing Lindsay. It seems to be quite unclear why he was even hired, but so be it now. Sautner set a pretrial hearing for March 1; Lindsay is not required to be in court if her counsel appears. The trial date is set for March 18. Expect fireworks. LiLo: Will she go to jail in 2013? Yes. Her luck is running out and she’s going crazy! No! She always finds a way to get out of it! View Poll »
