Police Oficer Who Shot Teenager Resigns
The white police officer who shot black teenager Michael
Brown dead has resigned, nearly four months after the confrontation
that fueled protests in the US city of St Louis and across the country.
Darren Wilson had been on administrative leave since the
August 9 shooting.
Darren Wilson’s resignation has been widely anticipated.
Still, it’s likely that those in Ferguson who’ve been
angered that Wilson wasn’t indicted will welcome his resignation.
It’s almost impossible to imagine him as a police officer
patrolling a community that believes he’s guilty of at least the wrongful death
of Michael Brown.
Civil rights activists have been calling for protests to
focus now on changes in Missouri state law to restrict the use of deadly force
by police and to explicitly outlaw racial profiling by officers.
That’s what marchers are calling for as they make their way
190km from Ferguson to the state capital Jefferson city over the next week.
