Tough. Nobody should shed any tears for this loser. Without a 'good old boy' descredited prosecutor, this moon faced hick would be facing a trial for murder. As it is, he gets off on his on testimony and a DOJ that is only considered impartial because its headed by a black man.
DOJ reports dont trump trials and Wilson is just another small chined wonder with a badge, a gun and a whole hillbilly department at his back.
Most reasonable people know a video recording would have showed Wilson for the milk weed coward he is.
There is something call Karma. Most folks with any common sense are aware of it. You do bad things, and someday, bad things will happen to you. Wilson could have used better judgement that day. But the power of being in uniform and being part of the gun crazed culture of the USA was the end result.
Sometimes it happens quick. Sometimes it takes years. But Karma is a b*tch.

What about all those criminals on Wall St that get away with billions from illegal gains and never get caught, where is karma then?

Perhaps overstated a bit, but I saw another similar report earlier today with far more quotes from Wilson, and it is clear he had a POV that was at best "concerning".
At minimum, two lives and a city were destroyed that day. Property values in Ferguson are still down 30%. It didn't even stop there, the rest of us are still paying in racial tensions. All because a police officer tried to do his job and was forced to make a split second decision while he felt in fear of his life, then was judged by a slew of armchair quarterbacks with slo-mo replay who were sitting in the comfort of their living room or a studio. Nobody but the news media and the race baiters won, and they are still at it.
It all started with Brown's friend, the portrayal of a young black man being gunned down in the street by an angry racist cop, all while he was surrendering with his hands up in the air, was a powerful one, it caught fire and the actual evidence and facts of the matter didn't seem to slow it down one bit.

If you have any real understanding of karma (which you don't), you know it doesn't work 100% of the time. It's not god-like judgement. It's action/reaction. You do something negative, and that sets off other negatives, often coming back to you. You do something good, that sets off other positives, often coming back to you.
Let me simplify it for you. You stand in front of your neighbors house and throw a rock through the window, you've set up a pretty good chance that you will suffer consequences.
Darren Wilson, the six Balto cops, and other like them, if fired, that's OK, there are hundreds of police depts. in the USA that would hire them on the spot.

Bottom line it shows the rank and file that when you do your job you can lose everything. It shows the rank and file to do the bare minimum. Look straight ahead and observe nothing. Take a report and go on to the next job. Otherwise risk everything for an uncaring society who will throw you and your family under the bus in a second.
The race pimps, politicians and media wanted to sacrifice Wilson, not for his actions, but for "social justice".
Not only was he sacrificed, but so were many black communities as officers decided to patrol "light" to keep themselves from being the next Wilson, businesses decided it was too risky to operate there and the middle class decided it is best to steer clear.
In the end, the blind pursuit of "social justice" has done much more damage to the black community than good, much like government programs.
The New Yorker piece linked from that article is much better and a good read. It ends with:
"Wilson proudly showed me a drawer, in his living room, which contained dozens of police-department patches from cops expressing their support. None of those cops, however, had offered him a job. "
