Attorney General Eric Holder announced this week that he expects to announce the results of the US Justice Department’s investigation in the death of Michael Brown. Holder will be leaving the AG post in the next couple weeks.
According to CNN, the Justice Department is expected to announce it won’t charge Darren Wilson for the shooting, but it’s also expected to outline findings that allege a pattern of discriminatory tactics used by the Ferguson police. The Justice Department would sue to force changes in the department if Ferguson Police don’t review and change those tactics.
