2 cops in Stallings videos are getting disability pensions
https://minnesotareformer.com/2021/10/14/cops-in-stallings-videos-are-getting-disability-pensions/Two of the Minneapolis police officers under scrutiny for their handling of protesters in the days after George Floyd’s killing have taken “duty disability retirements” of $62,000 and $84,000 per year with health insurance.
A third took regular retirement and $118,000 per year.
Recently released videos show officers indiscriminately shooting rubber bullets at people, slashing tires, making a racist comment and beating a man, Jaleel Stallings after he mistakenly fired at officers.
Former Officer Christopher Cushenbery left the city on April 2, and is receiving a disability pension of $5,168 per month; former Lt. Johnny Mercil left city employment on May 4, and is getting a duty disability pension of $7,026 per month.
