Darren Wilson came from disbanded Police Dept

[Brian4Liberty]

Wow, this is quite an article. They are taking Darren Wilson apart. It also looks like they are laying the groundwork for a civil rights case against Wilson. Wonder if this article has any connections to Holder or Obama?

Darren Wilson’s first job was on a troubled police force disbanded by authorities

FERGUSON, Mo. — The small city of Jennings, Mo., had a police department so troubled, and with so much tension between white officers and black residents, that the city council finally decided to disband it. Everyone in the Jennings police department was fired. New officers were brought in to create a credible department from scratch.

That was three years ago. One of the officers who worked in that department, and lost his job along with everyone else, was a young man named Darren Wilson.

I could care less about his history, unless it has to do with his record as a police officer and whether or not the actions he took were illegal when dealing with Michael Brown

So half the career of "six-year veteran" - the formative half - was served with a department so racist that its own city government disbanded it. And coming out of that situation with a clean record means he objected to nothing.

Also noteworthy from the article:

The Jennings department also had a corruption problem. A joint federal and local investigation discovered that a lieutenant had been accepting federal funds for drunken-driving checks that never happened.

Federal funds for drunken-driving checks? I never heard of that before. The federal tentacles into local PDs run deeper than I thought. What other funding incentives are the feds providing?

I've had plenty of experiences with cops to know that I can't trust them. They pulled me over on my bicycle for not having a light,threatened me with a ticket, wrote a ticket when my dad was nearly dead in a concrete truck turnover..wrote it while he was in the cab and jaws of life were being used (oh and the officer delivered the ticket the day my dad was released from the hospital after 6 hours of shoulder surgery). I have no respect at all.

they get funds to do the "safety" checkpoints.

Most all roadblocks and checkpoints, whether for drugs, DUI or seat belts are FedCoat funded in full or in part.

FedCoats fund the Fusion Centers that turn over all the federal and NSA spy data on us to the cops.

1033 Program that funds all the military surplus handouts to the cops.

Various training and SWAT support comes from the feds.

TSA and ICE and DHS work hand in hand with local cops.

The FedCoat tentacles are indeed deep.

So Wilson was a gypsy cop huh?

Imagine my surprise.

 

[Anti Federalist]

His lawyer did not answer phone calls or e-mails. The police union is mum.

His ex-wife is publicly silent. His friends aren’t speaking out.

His mother is long deceased, and there is no sign of his father or either of his stepfathers.

Can't blame him for that.

I sure as hell would have STFU and would advised all friends and family to do the same.

he stopped MB for WWB and shot him for COC.

Me too - if I knew I had murdered someone and wanted to escape the consequences.

Contrast the info released about this incident by the PD, and the timing thereof, with the killing of the knife-wielder this past week, or with the death of Eric Garner at the hands of the NYPD.

When the cops think they're justified, they say so right away. Always.

True, even if partially justified, they will announce it from the rooftops.

True, even if partially justified, they will announce it from the rooftops.

And thus I arrived at 99% certainty that Officer Darren Wilson is a murderer. The behavior is inconsistent with innocence, and we have a recent and proximate example with which we can draw a contrast.

Mike Brown could have been coming from a Hitler rally and on his way to a baby-raping contest, and Wilson would still be a murderer.

A newly released report by a nonprofit group of lawyers identifies Ferguson as a city that gets much of its revenue from fines generated by police in mundane citations against residents — what the group calls a poor-
people’s tax.

Fines for this and fines for that. The police doing nothing more than generating revenue?? But but...I thought they protected and served.

I'd bet decent money that Wilson never fired his weapon in service. I'd also bet that Wilson opens his car door and hits Brown with it. Brown shoves the car door back on Wilson. Wilson is so surprised and thrown off balance that he grabs for his pistol. Wilson also grabs Brown's shirt, but Brown fighting back also throws Wilson for a loop.

Wilson is probably about shitting himself at this point, so he accidentally discharges his firearm. The discharged firearm is probably when Brown pulls away.

Just what I'd guess and bet.
