The latest such incident comes from North Carolina where The Charlotte Observer is reporting three boys in blue have been fired after video of them ranting about a the necessity of a new Civil War to “wipe Black people off the map” surfaced.
On Tuesday (June 23) The Wilmington Police Department relieved Cpl. Jessie Moore, and officers Kevin Piner and Brian Gilmore of their badge and gun for violating standards of conduct, criticism and use of inappropriate jokes and slurs.
After reviewing footage from Piner’s car that had been labeled “accidental activation,” the sergeant stumbled upon some damning footage which showcased the officers “extremely racists” views and animosity towards Black American citizens.
At the 46-minute mark of the video, Piner and Gilmore began talking from their respective cars, at which time Piner criticized the department, saying its only concern was “kneeling down with the black folks.”
About 30 minutes later, Piner received a phone call from Moore, according to the investigation, a segment in which Moore referred to a Black female as a “negro.”
