Being a poorly educated member of the hoi-polois and not an MD...I was under the distinct impression that a QUADriplegic had no function in all FOUR limbs.

By that definition this victim is a PARAplegic, with loss of lower body and leg functions, because he's very obviously using his arms.

Which means some people are pushing a sympathy button, and there's both more and less than we're being told here.

This is a two year old incident and costs the jobs of three officers.

What do you know, people did something bad and lost their jobs over it. You know, the way things are supposed to work when a bad apple is exposed. So this story is meant to prove what exactly, bwalker42?

I don't know, being a quadriplegic involves having less control over one's body. It does, generally, invoke more sympathy when the media refers to one being attacked.

We all remember the wheelchair dumping incident that occurred this winter in a Florida jail. Doubting Brian Sterner,a paraplegic, was truly disabled, a deputy dumped him from his wheelchair onto a concrete floor. The sheriff of the county offered an apology for the treatment Mr. Sterner received. Until today, however, I haven't heard anything from the person responsible for tipping Mr. Sterner face-first out of his wheelchair, Charlotte Marshall-Jones. The deputy eventually resigned from her position just days before she was charged with abuse of a disabled person and today was her day in court.

Charlotte Marshall-Jones could have easily served time in jail for her offense, but Brian Sterner and his attorney instead asked the judge that the former deputy spend her time in an 18-month diversion program. Ms. Marshall-Jones accepted the offer and will serve around 100 hours of community service. As a final stipulation of the deal, Sterner requested that Ms. Marshall-Jones serve her time working with people with disabilities. There's no word yet on where exactly she might serve her community service.

Any good lawyer would have counter-sued the cripple for violating the officer's 1st ammendment rights to freedom of religion.

Obviously, she thought the victim had been faith-healed resulting in this most embarassing misunderstanding!!
