Lawyer: Darren Wilson in talks to resign from Ferguson police
11/27/2014

Darren Wilson, the white police officer who shot and killed unarmed black teen Michael Brown on August 9, leading to a wave of protests and unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, is in talks to resign from his department, according to his lawyer.

In an interview with CNN, attorney Neil Bruntrager said it’s a “matter of when, not if” Wilson will step down, and he might give up policing as a profession altogether.

“He’s on paid leave, and there are discussions that are going on right now to separate from the department in an amicable fashion,” said Bruntrager.

Fox is probably hiring. Seriously though, I can't imagine what this racist coward will do for a living after this.

1. Didn't the Klan and other assholes crowdfund him a million bucks?

Or a like amount?

He might not have to work for awhile.

3. I read about 400,000

9. Still, not bad.

It's amazing that he could do what he did and have it turn into a life changing event, for the good. Instead of going to prison or at least having to defend his ludicrous story in court he'll now have opportunities that most of us never will.

It's kind of sick.

10. It's crazy when you think about it

I can see him being on the payroll of Fox when they want a ex cop opinion on a certain matter.

I don't think in the long run your figure was off.

This will turn out to be over a million total with everything included

2. The city will give him a buy out on his pension

plus the 400 ,000 he had donated so I bet he walks away with over a half million
not counting a book deal or movie of the week which I'm sure we will see.

I't wouldn't surprise me if he was already contacted and in talks

4. OMG That is so despicable, that he could profit from this. I'm speechless.

...............

6. I can understand taking the pension but if h had some class

he would take some of that 400,000 and maybe set up some type of scholarship fund
for kids from Ferguson

Do something to show you're not the asshole and racist many people think you are

5. Don't forget about the 500k (or more) he got from his ABC interview. nt

7. Any "journalist" or "news network" that would

pay for an interview is not an authentic journalist or news network but a Corporate shill.

Journalism is virtually dead in this country.

8. If ABC (it was ABC right)

gets exposed for that their name will be mud

I don't think they paid him anything

11. Here's one reported claim that Wilson was paid

Exclusive: ABC Paid ‘Mid-to-High’ Six Figures For #DarrenWilson Interview
ABC claims they didn't pay via a tweet from someone else (though they could have "paid" the wife)

And here's an article about the practice--and the article points out that it's mostly ABC & NBC that pay out for exclusive interviews. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/13/business/media/13payments.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

12. That would be really messed up if they paid Wilson that kind of money
