I was thrilled he was fired. John Pike was subsequently fired, despite a recommendation that he face disciplinary action but be kept on the job. As of August 2014, Alex Lee was no longer listed in a state salary-database as working at UC Davis.[5] In October 2013, a judge ruled that Lt. John Pike, the lead pepper sprayer, would be paid $38,000 in worker's compensation benefits, to compensate for his psychological pain and suffering. Apart from the worker's compensation award, he retained his retirement credits. The three dozen student protestors, meanwhile, were collectively awarded US$1 million by UC Davis in a settlement from a federal lawsuit, with each pepper-sprayed student receiving $30,000 individually.[6] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UC_Davis_pepper-spray_incident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UC_Davis_pepper-spray_incident He lost a job that pays 6 figures for being a terrible human being. http://www.sacbee.com/site-services/databases/state-pay/article2642161.html#StatePay&search-d=1&search-n=20&search-name=john%20a%20pike&search-p=0&search-s=name&search-year=2011&top-year=2015 http://www.sacbee.com/site-services/databases/state-pay/arti...
