Cop who killed Michael Brown started his career at disgraced unit that was DISBANDED over racial tensions - after officers opened fire on fleeing mother and child and beat up another woman 

  • Darren Wilson was a rookie cop in Jennings, Missouri
  • The small city had a majority of black citizens but an almost completely white police force
  • The entire department was dismissed amid allegations of racial prejudice, unnecessary use of force lawsuits and corruption 
  • Wilson's next job was in Ferguson, from which he's on leave pending the investigation into the death of Michael Brown
  • Wilson shot Brown, 18, six times on August 9
  • There have been mass protests and demonstrations in Ferguson since

The police officer who shot an unarmed teenager in Ferguson two weeks ago learned his trade on a force that was disbanded over racial tensions, it has emerged.

Darren Wilson shot black teenager Michael Brown dead on 9 August, sparking weeks of protests and charges that the town’s police force is racist.

Now the Washington Post reports that Wilson’s first job as a police officer was with a nearby force in the city of Jennings that was scrapped over racial tensions following a series of controversial incidents.
