Three North Carolina police officers were fired for misconduct after an internal video audit revealed they had made racist and threatening remarks, including some using the N-word and calling for a race-based civil war.

The Wilmington Police Department on June 23 terminated Cpl. Jessie Moore and officers Kevin Piner and Brian Gilmore, noting that they were ineligible for rehire by the City of Wilmington, according to investigative documents (pdf).
