Autism is not a crime - please stop with the tasers already

Update to:
City of Tybee, GA rummages around desk, looking for checkbook [LINK]
...and...
Two officers and the Police Chief 'down' in Tybee [LINK]

All charges against an autistic Georgia teenager, 18-year-old Clifford Grevemberg, have been dropped. An officer, who has since resigned, deployed his taser against Grevemberg twice believing that the autistic teen was drunk and disorderly. A lawsuit is pending. [LINK][via TNT]

As previously advised, offer a discount on the settlement provided they issue a groveling apology and clearly admit wrong-doing. On the other hand, if they wish to not admit wrong-doing, make them pay through the nose for that lie.

The discount (money left on the table) will pay for itself many times over in peace of mind.
