Second of all, I don't think that there is enough evidence to go to trial, that's why the investigation was on-going. We still have conflicting witnesses, the forensics isn't near complete yet, or do you just want to rush to conviction?
If you go to trial based on an emotional demand, and the defense cuts it to threads you can't retrial.
At this point there is lots of oversight on this, but you can't rush it to trial because it makes people feel better.
This isn't a kangeroo court system like the Soviet Union in the mid 60's.

40 FBI agents have arrived in Ferguson, Missouri to investigate the shooting of unarmed teenager Michael Brown, Missouri Highway Patrol Captain Ron Johnson announced Saturday.

They had to get the FBI a week after the shooting and thank god they did because noone would believe the kangaroo court of an internal investigation. They have been on the ground for 5 days, they probably need more time for sure.
