Two contractors who don't live in Ferguson confirm other witnesses stories that Brown had hands up...

These two contractors claim they were 50 feet away from Officer Wilson when Michael Brown was shot. They confirm the 4 other local witnesses who claim Brown was gunned down like a dog. One has his face blurred in the video. One is clearly Caucasian.

(CNN) -- Two men, shocked at what they saw, describe an unarmed teenager with his hands up in the air as he's gunned down by a police officer.

They were contractors doing construction work in Ferguson, Missouri, on the day Michael Brown was killed.

And the men, who asked not to be identified after CNN contacted them, said they were about 50 feet away from Officer Darren Wilson when he opened fire.

An exclusive cell phone video captures their reactions during the moments just after the shooting.

"He had his f**n hands up," one of the men says in the video.

The man told CNN he heard one gunshot, then another shot about 30 seconds later.

"The cop didn't say get on the ground. He just kept shooting," the man said.

That same witness described the gruesome scene, saying he saw Brown's "brains come out of his head," again stating, "his hands were up."

Four Michael Brown Eyewitness Stories Back-To-Back (You Decide)

How consistent are the 4 know eyewitness stories of the Michael Brown shooting? Watch this video and decide for yourself.



Of course, Officer Wilson has not publicly told his story, we only have second hand accounts.

Eyewitness releases video from shortly after Brown shooting. It shows Officer Wilson.

Crenshaw’s account of what happened starts at around 3:00. She’s right in line with the other three eyewitnesses on Brown’s general movements: He ran from Wilson initially, Wilson fired at him, then Brown turned back to face him. Crenshaw thinks the shots fired at Brown while he was running away either missed him entirely or grazed him, which corroborates the autopsy report showing no entry wounds from the back. The truly interesting part here is what she says she saw when Wilson first pulled up alongside Brown and Dorian Johnson. Johnson has claimed that Wilson grabbed Brown from inside the vehicle — specifically, he says, he grabbed Brown’s neck, which would seem hard to do to a man who’s 6’4″ from a sitting position. Crenshaw says she too saw Wilson grab Brown, although she doesn’t say where specifically. Wilson then seemed to get “upset,” says Crenshaw, Brown took off, and Wilson took off after him.

Democrat Rep. Ed Markey accused of "intimidating a witness" for testifying against cap-and-trade bill

Cap and Trade is a hotly contested proposal before the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Democrats are determined to ram this legislation through by any means necessary. Now, the GOP is threatening an ethics probe over a letter Democrat Rep. Ed Markey (Mass.) sent to regulators demanding an investigation into past statements made by David L. Sokol, CEO of MidAmerican Energy Holding Co. (of which Warren Buffett is the largest stakeholder), and Buffett and actions taken by the company.

From The Hill:

In that letter, they explained their complaint that while David L. Sokol, CEO of MidAmerican Energy Holding Co. (of which Warren Buffett is the largest stakeholder), told Markey’s subcommittee panel that his cap-and-trade legislation would be ineffective and expensive, the chairman sent a formal request to regulators for an investigation into past statements made by Sokol and Buffett and actions taken by the company.

“Mr. Sokol and his company became the focus of apparent intimidation when Chairman Markey by letter dated the day of the hearing, asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to answer specific questions about investment and transmission-related activist of MidAmerican Energy and its partner, investor Warren Buffett,” they wrote in the letter signed by all GOP members of the committee.
