I'm not aware of the officer's account becoming more elaborate. In fact, i haven't seen an official account at all.
Thank you for pointing that out.

Tips For Being An Unarmed Black Teen
Aug 14, 2014
With riots raging in Ferguson, MO following the shooting death by police of an unarmed African-American youth, the nation has turned its eyes toward social injustice and the continuing crisis of race relations. Here are The Onion’s tips for being an unarmed black teen in America:
- Shy away from dangerous, heavily policed areas.
- Avoid swaggering or any other confident behavior that suggests you are not completely subjugated.
- Be sure not to pick up any object that could be perceived by a police officer as a firearm, such as a cell phone, a food item, or nothing.
- Explain in clear and logical terms that you do not enjoy being shot, and would prefer that it not happen.
- Don’t let society stereotype you as a petty criminal. Remember that you can be seen as so much more, from an armed robbery suspect, to a rape suspect, to a murder suspect.
- Try to see it from a police officer’s point of view: You may be unarmed, but you’re also black.
- Avoid wearing clothing associated with the gang lifestyle, such as shirts and pants.
- Revel in the fact that by simply existing, you exert a threatening presence over the nation’s police force.
- Be as polite and straightforward as possible when police officers are kicking the shit out of you.

And we have more riots. I guess it was the store owners fault for having video survellience. What we the public must see this as is two completely separate things. One is the most likely over reaction and illegal shooting by the cop along with a so far completely bungled investigation, and then the black community along with race baiting Inc. to use that as just another excuse to do what they do.
