Darren Wilson Positive Ahead of Civil Rights Investigation Against Him

Officer Darren Wilson is positive ahead of the civil rights investigation open against him by the US Department of Justice and stands by his actions, he said in an interview with ABC News.

MOSCOW, November 28 (Sputnik) — Officer Darren Wilson, who fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown in August in Ferguson, Missouri, United States, is positive about the civil rights investigation open against him by the US Department of Justice, he said in an interview with ABC News.

"I stand by what I did, I stand by my training and I have to wait and see what they determine," Wilson said Thursday confirming he was confident no charges would be brought against him.

The current civil rights investigation is aimed to determine whether Wilson could have violated Brown's civil rights by being racially biased. In his defense Wilson stated during the interview that he has never acted or has been accused of acting in racist manner.

There is another investigation going on right now aimed at determining whether Ferguson police had a patter of discriminatory practice, according to ABC News.

On November 26, Wilson's lawyer Neil Bruntrager said Wilson was set to leave the Ferguson Police Department and there was a possibility that he would not go back to being a police officer.

On Monday, a grand jury decided not to indict Wilson, a white police officer who shot and killed African-American teenager Michael Brown in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson on August 9.

Brown's killing sparked weeks of often-violent protests in the city and related demonstrations across the country. A new wave of protests erupted on Monday following the grand jury's decision.
