As promised last night to very little enthusiasm, I've taken the unsearchable PDFs released by the St. Louis County prosecutor's office and converted them to a readable format. I feel like a full accounting of what transpired in the grand jury is critical, and that the document dump was done in this way not for transparency but for McCulloch to then say "See all the crap the grand jury had to wade through? They can't even get searchable documents."

So there are the first 42. I still haven't been able to get the next batch, because the server they're hosted on appears to still be crashed.
The original unsearchable documents can be found here: http://www.cnn.com/...
But the servers are still hammered, so I'll be collecting the rest of the documents later. So far I've been able to save and convert all of the grand jury testimony and most of the forensic evidence.
If you have copies of the documents I am missing, I'm still having trouble getting them, so please message me or just email them to me at Gmail -- same nick as here.
Update: I'm converting the remaining documents as we speak. It's also a huge amount, hopefully I can get it all done before I have to get back to work. Otherwise it oughta be up around 5pm CST.
Link to what I find the most damning piece of evidence of a conspiracy to obstruct justice. https://docs.google.com/... -- Thanks to MrsGeiiga for transcribing the handwritten document for us.
This is aptly described in this article on Balloon Juice: http://www.balloon-juice.com/...
Basically, someone -- "Witness 40" -- claims to have gone to Ferguson on August 9 to discover that black people are people, and through a series of wrong turns happens to wind up right at the right place to completely corroborate Wilson's account. None of the witness transcripts I'm waiting on are labeled Witness 40, so if there is other mention made of this person, it must be in the voluminous transcripts. Happy hunting!
Update 2: Uploading the last batch of documents AS WE SPEAK. Sorry for being late (again). I'm writing a new diary of what I've learned so far.
