According to The Daily Mail on Monday, Crenshaw can be heard saying "God bless his soul, police shot this boy outside my apartment." She also hadn't released her video because Wilson's name had not been released previously.
Crenshaw said that police had the video after they had confiscated her phone following the shooting. Crenshaw lives in an apartment with a balcony overlooking the street in Ferguson, Missouri where Brown was tragically shot.
Crenshaw said from that night she knew what was happening wasn't right. 'I knew the police shouldn't have been chasing this boy and firing at the same time. And the fact he got shot in his face, something clicked in me and I thought someone else should see this so I recorded."
Wilson is now on paid administrative leave following Brown's death. There have been many different descriptions about what went down between Brown and Wilson before Brown's death on August 9.
The website said that an independent autopsy done Monday revealed Brown died from a "kill shot" to the head, but could have survived his other bullet wounds.
President Obama said yesterday "That's how we're going to move forward together, by trying to unite each other and understand each other and not simply divide ourselves from one another," about the unrest in Ferguson. He also said Eric Holder would be traveling there this week.
