UC pays $38,055 to officer involved in pepper-spray incident

http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-uc-davis-pepper-spray-20131024,0,619789.story#axzz2iZpCy3YG

A former UC Davis police officer who received worldwide notoriety for pepper-spraying campus protesters two years ago will be receive $38,055 in workers' compensation after claiming he suffered depression and anxiety as result of the public outcry.

John Pike, who had filed for the compensation from the University of California system, also cited the stress he endured from death threats he received after the incident. Pike was fired in July 2012, after being on paid administrative leave for eight months.

“This case has been resolved in accordance with state law and processes on workers' compensation,” UC Davis spokesman Andy Fell said in a statement.

The settlement, first detailed by the Davis Enterprise newspaper, was approved by an administrative law judge last week. A psychiatrist in the case rated Pike’s disability as moderate and said the former officer faced “significant emotional upheavals,” according to the newspaper.

In an online video that went viral, Pike was shown spraying the seated demonstrators close to their faces while they offered no resistance. The Nov. 18, 2011, spraying provoked outrage on campus and around the UC system, and a public task force investigation found that Pike’s action was unwarranted.

Settling a civil lawsuit, the UC system last year agreed to pay damages of $30,000 to each of the 21 UC Davis students and alumni who were pepper-sprayed during the otherwise peaceful protest related to the Occupy movement.

I know this article isn't about drugs or fungus, but we do seem to be posting articles about police and government misconduct lately.

Anyways, this guy pepper sprayed a bunch of people who were peacefully protesting, then got 8 months of paid leave, and now gets another $38K because people got mad he pepper sprayed them.  He is a victim of victimizing others.  And the people he hosed down with pepper spray only got $30K each.

:herpderp:

This and that other one would have been gone, but Allen hasn't been on since 8am. Unless he deems sugar and capsaicin drugs.

And some of that $38,055 came from the pockets of people he sprayed.
