ST. LOUIS - Two weeks after releasing thousands of documents from the St. Louis County grand jury proceedings into the Michael Brown shooting, the office of the St. Louis County prosecutor has released hundreds more pages.
The records released Monday include audio of gunshots, more witness interviews and an autopsy conducted by a medical examiner of the U.S. Department of Defense. But even with all the new information, many are wondering about one thing still missing - the FBI interview with a key witness, Dorian Johnson, who was with Brown when the shooting happened.
St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch stressed Nov. 24 when he announced the grand jury decision not to indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson, who shot Brown on Aug. 9, that some witnesses could not keep their stories straight.
'Many witnesses to the shooting of Michael Brown made statements inconsistent with other statements they made,' McCulloch said.
Johnson talked to local and national reporters, but it's unknown what he told the FBI.

When asked about the missing records, McCulloch's executive assistant, Ed Magee, said the county prosecutor's office had 'turned over and relinquished control' of the FBI's interview. He said the FBI specifically asked the county not to release records that are part of an ongoing federal civil rights probe.
Now more records, clearly marked as FBI interviews, have been released, but not all of them.
Asked why some information had not been part of the initial release, Magee told The New York Times everything wasn't ready in time.
