I would say that was one of the bigger frick ups of the whole situation and helped fuel some of the anger. Not saying rioting wouldn't have happened, but it would have been better to remove the body as quickly as possible. Rather than watching a bunch of other white men with badges walking past and around Brown several times.
Can only do so much -- have to wait for the EMTs to check him, a superior, a detective since it's an active crime scene.
You can't just willy nilly move a body because it's discomforting. Procedure and protocol 'n' shite.

So what about the active crime scene prevented them from moving the body for 4-5 hours? The police chief himself said he was "uncomfortable" with how long the body was there.

I understand, but I feel they could have mitigated some of the visual fireworks. If I am wrong about that than so be it, just my opinion. I get that there are procedures for certain situations (i.e. Handcuffing a suspect no matter what, etc.).
I have family in law enforcement from Sheriff deputy to FBI agent. Most don't understand the training of law enforcement and can be misunderstood to be callous and cold. However, it is done to protect life, property, and evidence.
