Shawn Lewis posted an article URL regarding Charon Dow's allegation of police cover-up. In the story detailing the incident, which took place in February of this year, Dow claims an inebriated Minneapolis police officer, John Brodin, ran over her son Malik , breaking his legs.

Pretty amazing, considering how fast rumors fly. A story as sensationalistic as this would be hard to suppress; even the whiff of such an allegation would bring the press hounds out. Is there any earlier corroboration of these charges elsewhere? Alternative presses? Anybody know? If not, why has Dow waited several months to make her allegations public? The story raises more questions than it answers.
