That is a different subject. In any criminal trial, all that matters are the facts of the case. In the Michael Brown case, there is no evidence that Officer Wilson did anything wrong. In addition, there is no evidence that Officer Wilson was an overly aggressive officer or that he had any racial bias. That is all that matters in this case.

You wouldn't blame all blacks or all latinos for the disproportionately high levels of crime committed by some blacks and some latinos. So don't blame Officer Wilson for misconduct by some officers. Should a law abiding black citizen who has committed no crime go to jail or lose his job because some other black people commit crime? Of course not. So why should Officer Wilson be punished for misconduct by other officers?

You posting that article is ridiculous. It would be like if I kept saying that some black man was guilty of a crime and then it was proven that he was innocent. Then instead of admitting that I was wrong, I post an article that says that black people commit a lot of crime (as if that is relevant to whether a specific black person is guilty of a crime).
