Prosecutor's Office: Grand jury in Ferguson case Reaches Decision
A grand jury reached a decision earlier this afternoon in the case
against the Ferguson police officer who shot and killed an unarmed black
teenager in August, touching off nationwide protests and accusations of
police brutality.
The Office of the Prosecuting Attorney in St. Louis County, Mo., said
the decision would be revealed at 9 p.m. ET, but gave no indication
whether officer Darren Wilson would be charged in the killing of
18-year-old Michael Brown.
Speaking at the University of Missouri-St. Louis about an hour ago,
Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon urged peace and said authorities were prepared
to deal with possible protests.
"It is understood that they, like the rest of us, are on edge," Nixon
said, referring to Ferguson's residents. "Together we are all focused
that the necessary resources are on hand to protect lives, protect
property and protect free speech."
Sean will be live on 'Hannity' on FoxNews at 10pm ET with reaction and analysis of the grand jury's decision. |

Why Clint Lorance Deserves Clemency
Via DailyCaller.com
Clint Lorance is the epitome of all that’s right in this world. The
son of a welder, he grew up in a humble, middle-class household. A
respectful, gentle, and tenderhearted man, Clint was always quick to
open doors for ladies and offer a helping hand to the elderly or weak.
By twelve, he was mowing lawns to stow away money for college. When
it came time to drive, he paid for his own truck and the insurance.
Clint frequently sent his mom flowers and gifts. He even paid her truck off a few years ago, just because he could.
Not long after his grandfather’s death in 1999, Clint began secretly
depositing money into his grandmother’s bank account, doing his best to
never take credit for it. These $250.00/month deposits continued for
nearly eleven years.
Until Clint was incarcerated.
After serving 10 years with a spotless record in the U.S. Army —
accolades at every evaluation — Clint found himself in the middle of a
nightmare. With one split-second decision, this hero’s life was
destroyed by the very military he gave himself to.
