New Orleans police officer who made crass comments on a Trayvon Martin post resigns

A New Orleans police officer has resigned after being suspended for posting a comment on a local television station’s website about the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin in which he suggested the Florida teen died like a “thug.”

Jason Giroir used his full name and identified himself as a New Orleans Police Department employee when Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas suspended Giroir indefinitely without pay Monday. On Tuesday, Giroir resigned after being told allegations against him had been sustained and a hearing to begin his termination was in motion.

The 17-year-old black teenager was unarmed and shot in Sanford, Fla., by a neighborhood watch captain who said he acted in self-defense.
