A previously fired Mississippi police officer who was filmed verbally harassing a group of Hispanic men with racist remarks has been welcomed aboard by another police department just days after President Donald Trump's inauguration.

Jeremy Rast, formerly of the Richland Police Department, was dismissed last year after being caught on video telling a group of Hispanic men to "go back to Mexico" and to "get the f*** out of Richland," as reported by WLBT.
