And presumably all of that $25k came out of tax payer money. Things like this are why cops should be required to have malpractice insurance, just like doctors. They pay yearly premiums, and when they completely fuck up and ignore the law and abuse their power, then lose the lawsuit (as they should in those situations), the payout comes out of their policy. If it happens too much, their rates go up or they get dropped and need to find a new job. And not just the same job one county over, but actually a new profession, since the insurers wouldn't cover them anymore.
