Wouldn't PCP have shown up in the report that showed he has smoked marijuana? I realize swisher sweets are commonly used to roll blunts but the "ghetto craze" of PCP blunts was in the 90's IIRC. Marijuana alone causes anything but aggressive behavior unless he was assaulting the buffet table. Also I somewhat fail to see the relevance of the wonky 80's ad unless it can be proven he was on a powerful substance like PCP or some sort of long history of hard drug use.
Police won't release any further details of the autopsy, pending the results of toxicology tests. Those should be available in the next four weeks.

I'm not 100% sure how the drug screens work. Maybe PCP requires a specific test for it? Or the authorities have a positive result for it, but are gun-shy about releasing too much info as they've been accused of trying to smear Big Loads character. How long does PCP stay in a persons system? Listening to his crap, er I mean rap, it sounds like he's messed up on something more than marijuana.

Again, the authorities involved have stated to the New York Times that Wilson got out of his car as Johnson and Brown ran from him, and fired his weapon while they were still running.
They did not state how many times he fired his weapon as the two were running, or if he specifically fired at the two. So that part is reasonably well validated.
Dorian made some very odd statements.
"When the officer tried to brush the door open, it ricocheted off of us. It nearly knocked the wind out of me, hitting Big Mike more. It barely tapped me."
“I am a forensic pathologist assistant
and medical investigator,” Parcells told
FOX 4’s Shannon O’Brien.
However, that’s something of a dubious
title according to forensic pathologist Dr.
Erik Mitchell.
“That is a degree that does not exist in
my knowledge, except in the mind of
Shawn Parcells,” Dr. Mitchell said.
that Mr. Parcells, who only has a Bachelor’s degree, was performing unsupervised forensic autopsies without the appropriate qualifications.
My surprise quickly turned to disappointment when I saw several large and experienced media organizations wildly misrepresent Mr. Parcells’
qualifications.
CBS News: Forensic pathologist

New York City chief medical examiner
Dr. Michael Baden during the private
autopsy…
Washington Post: Then, forensic
pathologists Michael Baden and Shawn
Parcells flew to Missouri to examine
Brown at the request of the teenager’s
family…
BBC News: Forensic pathologist
Shawn Parcells, who assisted Dr.
Baden, said that one of the gunshot
wounds to Mr Brown’s arm could have
occurred as he had his hands up, but it
remains unclear if that was the
case…Forensic pathologist Shawn
Parcells demonstrates how Michael
Brown might have been standing
(photo caption)…
After Mr. Parcells described himself as a
“forensic pathologist assistant and medical
investigator”, Dr. Mitchell says:
That is a degree that does not exist in my knowledge, except in the mind of Shawn Parcells…You cannot claim the title, because it is
a formal, licensable position. You can assist
somebody; in this way I can
say, for instance, I have paid my taxes, so I am an
assistant President of the United States…He has none of the qualifications that are
required. He has experience as a morgue technician, somebody who would move bodies around, clean up after an autopsy…
Shawn hung out at the Jackson County Medical
Examiner’s office but was not trained by me.”…. “He
has been representing himself in a way that is not
appropriate by giving forensic pathology opinions
when he is not qualified to do so.
