The crowdfunding site GoFundMe shut down a campaign this week to raise money for the South Carolina police officer whose killing of a black man was caught on video.
Michael Slager, 33, was charged with murder after the video surfaced showing him firing at Walter Scott, 50, in the back.
Slater was fired from the North Charleston police force after being charged with murder for the shooting.
"After a review by our team, the campaign set up for Officer Slager was removed from GoFundMe due to a violation of our Terms & Conditions," according to a statement by GoFundMe spokesperson Kelsea Little.
A Twitter account in support of Slager announced the rejection late Tuesday night.
