Ferguson Police Spokesperson Suspended for ‘Pile of Trash’ Comment



A spokesman for the Ferguson, Mo., police department has beensuspended*after he admitted calling a memorial for an unarmed black teenager shot dead by a white officer “a pile of trash,” the city said on Saturday.

Officer Timothy Zoll was put on unpaid leave when he told his superiors that the WashingtonPost*had correctly quoted him as referring derogatorily to the stuffed animals and flowers placed where Michael Brown, 18, was killed by Officer Darren Wilson, Reuters reports.

Zoll had been the Ferguson Police Department’s spokesman on the fatal shooting, for which Wilson was not indicted. The case became a flashpoint for national protests and sparked an ongoing debate about race relations on the U.S.

Zoll had at first insisted that the Washington*Post*misquoted him when it cited him as referring to Brown’s memorial as “trash.” APost*reporter called Boll on Friday to ask about reports that someone had intentionally driven over the memorial, to which Zoll allegedly replied: “I don’t know that a crime has occurred. But a pile of trash in the middle of the street? The Washington*Post*is making a call over this?”

The City of Ferguson said in a statement that “negative remarks about the Michael Brown memorial do*not reflect the feelings*of the Ferguson Police Department” and reiterated the department and city’s commitment to “rebuilding a trusting relationship with he entire community.” The tribute to Brown has since been rebuilt.

Activists protesting the police shooting of Michael Brown reportedly stormed the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department headquarters Wednesday with an intent to “reclaim” the department for the people of Ferguson.

During a “March to the Arch” rally, roughly 15 protesters entered the lobby of the department about 10 a.m. and read a list of demands, a local Fox affiliate reported.

They also reportedly posted hundreds of “Eviction Notices” on the outside of the building for “perpetrating police brutality on our citizenry.”

“We are informing you that the police department is scheduled to be reclaimed by its citizens today, December 31, 2014,” the notice read. It also accused the department of “transforming the police force into a militarized occupying force.”

The scene devolved into chaos once officers tried to remove the protesters from the building. Police used pepper spray on several people trying to rush through the doors of the department, the Fox affiliate reported.

Four women and one man were reportedly arrested and will be charged with trespassing and peace disturbance. The man is also facing an assault charge for assaulting a city marshal inside the headquarters lobby, Fox reported.

Demonstrators are still outside of the building, the station said.

Support grows for local police

ST. LOUIS -- While some local police departments are well-equipped, others are not, sometimes working without protective Kevlar vests.

"Our hope is to get every single officer who's not in a vest, in a vest. We want every single officer to have the necessary protection," said a spokeswoman for Officer Needs Assistance USA.

Officer Needs Assistance USA is a St. Louis-based organization started by supporters of former Ferguson policeman Darren Wilson. A grand jury did not indict Wilson for the controversial shooting death of teenager Michael Brown. Wilson supporters decided to continue raising money, not for Wilson, but for policeman who are under-equipped.

"We decided we could help them, one officer at a time by raising funds to get them those protective vest that they need," said the spokeswoman.

Officer Needs Assistance USA is raising money by selling wristbands and t-shirts. There is also a GoFundMe account for donations to buy protective vests. The first local policeman to receive a protective vest is a Wellston officer, Travis Parrish.

"I made the call to him and his first response was my wife is going to be so excited," said the spokeswoman, "and very shortly after we got that letter of thanks from her that we have on our We Are Darren Wilson Facebook page, and that was very rewarding."

Sometimes support for police can be as simple as a blue light bulb.

"It's something that's been around for a while, the blue lights," said Desiree Clark of St. Louis.

The blue lights are a symbol of the Police Lives Matter movement, which pays respect to fallen police officers, like the two New York City policemen who were recently shot and killed.

"Anytime an officer was injured or hurt, falling in the line of duty, you put the lights out," said Clark.

Clark, whose mother and father are police officers, has a blue light bulb shining outside her house. She hopes those with a negative opinion of police will reconsider, even as nationwide protests continue about controversial civilian deaths at the hands of police.

"Open their eyes. Stop being so close-minded when it comes to police officers," said Clark. "Stop thinking they're all bad. Stop thinking they're all out to get you because they're not."

Ferguson demonstrators disrupt Missouri Senate swearing-in

Ferguson demonstrators disrupt Missouri Senate swearing-in

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – As Missouri Senators were readying to swear-in for this year’s session, they had hardly begun the ceremony when chants of “black lives matter” – an ode to the deaths of black men by white police officers – erupted from the upper gallery.

Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder, a Republican, called on the Missouri Highway Patrol to remove the demonstrators and ordered the upper gallery closed to the public during the swearing-in events.

Demonstrators had gathered earlier in the day to rally for post-Ferguson reforms and Medicaid expansion as lawmakers were to begin the 98th General Assembly.

Senate President Pro Tem Tom Dempsey said municipal court reform and education policy changes were in the works as legislators meet for the first time for a full session following the events in Ferguson.
