Governor will not seek removal of Ferguson county prosecutor
Missouri Governor Jay Nixon says he will not seek the removal of St. Louis County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch who oversees the Michael Brown case amid nightly Ferguson protests. Nixon cites an established recusal process to appoint a special prosecutor and warns against legal uncertainty. McCulloch, elected in 1991, is seen as tough on crime. Police and protesters clash not tonight but tensions persist as Ferguson officials outline reforms including more African American recruits, residency incentives, dash cam funding, and community healing efforts. Funeral and memorial for Brown set for Monday per attorney Benjamin Crump, with location to be announced. A separate incident in St Louis leaves a knife-wielding man shot dead after threatening officers in a crowd shouting Hands up dont shoot.
