It was clear by the testimony that Brown was in a rage and had earlier tried to disarm the police officer.

Based on what the jury heard, the police officer was in the right, and that's why they didn't indict.

By the information given, this would be considered a good shoot. brown sadly was stupid as soon as he attacked the police officer in the car and tried to take the cops gun.
He's already shooting at him at that point. The mind-reading business is long over. My point is it doesn't make any sense (and is therefore suspicious that the cop puts it in the story) for the guy to be going for a gun that he doesn't have while he's already in the middle of a deadly confrontation.

But, I don't believe the cops testimony in general, and the whole thing is a crock of ####, so this is probably just nitpicking at the alleged "details".
