Months ago, after Michael Brown was slain by Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson, residents of the community complained that police had ran over Brown’s memorial. There were additional incidents of disrespect as well, including the allegation that cops allowed dogs to urinate on the memorial.

Now, in a similar incident, a spokesman for Ferguson police has been placed on unpaid leave after calling the makeshift memorial a “pile of trash in the middle of the street” after it was destroyed.

Timothy Zoll, a Ferguson Police information officer, said during an interview with the Washington Post, he wasn’t sure if the destruction of the memorial was a crime.

“I don’t know that a crime has occurred,” Zoll said, according to the paper. “But a pile of trash in the middle of the street? The Washington Post is making a call over this?”

Zoll initially tried to cover himself by saying he didn’t make the remarks and that the Post misquoted him. After the investigation began, however, he was forced to admit that he did in fact make the statements.

“Upon being confronted with the results of the Ferguson Police Department’s investigation regarding the remarks that were attributed to the Public Information Officer, the officer admitted to Department investigators that he did in fact make the remarks attributed to him, and that he misled his superiors when asked about the contents of the interview,” read a statement from the City of Ferguson.

Zoll, who has been with the department 12 years, was placed on leave pending disciplinary proceedings.

“The City of Ferguson wants to emphasize that negative remarks about the Michael Brown memorial do not reflect the feelings of the Ferguson Police Department and are in direct contradiction to the efforts of City officials to relocate the memorial to a more secure location,” the statement continued. “The Ferguson Police Department also wants to note that even after the officer’s initial denial of his statement; the Police Chief continued the investigation until the truth was discovered. The City of Ferguson and the Ferguson Police Department in particular, are focused on creating a trusting relationship with the entire community and taking impactful steps to improve the effectiveness of the department.”

This would confirm that the KKKops burned that memorial

Hold up, so you get PAID ADMIN leave (aka Paid Vacation) for killing people but you will get UNPAID leave for calling a memorial "trash"? Police policies are backwards as fukk!
