The police chief in Ferguson, Missouri, has problems. He's been under intense scrutiny ever since a white officer in his department fatally shot African-American teenager Michael Brown. Now, government officials familiar with ongoing discussions are saying he is expected to step down as part of an effort by city officials to reform the Police Department. Chief Thomas Jackson and Ferguson's mayor have denied the reports. There's no denying, however, that Jackson is in hot water. Here's a look at five ways the police chief or his department have sparked outrage in the community: 1. Body in the street After Brown was gunned down, his body lay in the street for four hours in a blazing Missouri sun. Police would later say that officials couldn't reach the area where the body lay because a crowd had gathered, making it too dangerous.
