The Officer Who Killed Michael Brown Recently Won A Police Excellence Award

Six months ago, Darren Wilson won an award for his “extraordinary effort in the line of duty.” Last week, he shot an unarmed teenager in Ferguson, Mo. The shooting has ignited protests in the city and around the country.


Wilson's father posted a picture of his son receiving the award on Facebook, writing on Feb. 11, "Very proud of my son, Darren Wilson on his receiving a Commendation from his Police Department. Congratulations Son."

John Wilson also turned to the social network to ask friends for support a few days ago.


He wrote:



Dear FB friends, Our family is in need for prayers to be sent up for a family member. Circumstances do not allow for us to say anything further. Please pray with our family in mind. Put a covering of protection over our family member please.
