Here are the suspicious parts:

1) MPD dropped the charges. Firearms charges. On non-federal property. They never, ever do that and there are plenty of examples, even weeks before EMW's arrest to support that.

2) EMW was granted access to a video teleconference system, pre-arraignment, so he ould conduct an interview with the New York Times. Again, this never happens.

3) At that time, MPD 2D had approximately 30% body cameras issued. No video exists of the ordeal.

4) Nothing matches between the eyewitness accounts, the discharge of the firearms, the charging documents, etc. And WTF owns an AR chambered in 9mm? Oh, someone that needed to more safely discharge a firearm in a live fire exercise. Or, shoot a hard drive without over penetration.

Also... Street Cameras were moved prior to event. Street was prep'd prior to event. Welchs' phone records were sealed upon first appearance so nobody can see who he was speaking with prior to the incident.

I head the timeframe was listed as 20 minutes from the time he entered the building until the last patron ran out. That's an awful long time considering he didn't face kidnap charges.
