Chico - the reason you haven't heard all the facts is because there are none to hear... the people investigating it are not publicly airing their investigation as it goes, which is exactly the way it should be.
What you're hear are people that are self-appointed authorities telling everyone else what happened; people that weren't there that day. Some of which weren't even in the state. Many of which have zero experience or training in police procedures, investigations, etc.

It's not unfair to say that there is a ton of video evidence of the police over reaching response. There is a film crew (yeah I know it's al-Jazeera America but nonetheless) that is filming, and gets gassed, then the camera is dismantled by police. There was video of people, unarmed and hands in the air, being bombarded with tear gas. No there hasn't been full and open investigations, but that appears to be mainly because the police have been less than forthcoming with it.
