"There's still time for us to get it right:" FOX6's Ted Perry discusses the connection between Ferguson & Milwaukee

FERGUSON, MISSOURI/MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN (WITI) -- A decision was handed down in Ferguson, Missouri on Monday evening, November 24th -- after a grand jury decided there is no probable cause to indict Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson in connection with the shooting death of Michael Brown. No other city is looking at Ferguson quite like Milwaukee -- as we await a decision out of the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office in the Dontre Hamilton case.

The case out of Ferguson is similar to the case here in Milwaukee involving Dontre Hamilton. 31-year-old Hamilton was shot and killed in April by Milwaukee police officer Christopher Manney. Manney has been terminated from the Milwaukee Police Department over his handling of Hamilton that day — a termination he’s appealing.

Meanwhile, Dontre Hamilton’s family continues to await a decision out of the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office as to whether Christopher Manney will face criminal charges in the shooting. It’s a decision they have waited to hear for nearly seven months.

Dontre Hamilton’s mother, Maria and brother, Nate watched the grand jury decision out of Ferguson be read on Monday evening. It was a decision that upset Maria Hamilton so much, she had to leave the room.

The Ferguson decision upset many throughout the country -- with protesters taking to the streets for a second straight night on Tuesday, November 25th.
