Williams was often on camera from Cable News outlets like MSNBC and CNN, typically portrayed as the face of the "peaceful" protestor during the Ferguson riots. Turns out, he was just another violent criminal burning down his own community. What is strange, is that you really have to look for this story, to find it from traditional media outlets.

Fred, I first saw news of the story on a Right leaning source.  Then, I did a google search to look for multiple sources.  What that search turned up, was the lone short story from CBS (at the National level).  Now, I did see several stories from multiple local outlets, close to Ferguson.

For once I will agree with you.  I had heard about it, but when I googled like you did I found the same.
