In August 2018, Brailsford was reinstated by the Mesa Police Department, staying for a further 42 days in what the department described as a “budget position”. The department agreed to reimburse Brailsford for medical expenses related to his post-traumatic stress disorder – the result of his shooting of Shaver and the resultant criminal trial. The reinstatement allowed Brailsford to apply for “accidental disability” experienced during the course of work. As a result, Brailsford was unanimously approved to be retired on medical grounds. Brailsford was also given a pension of $2,500 per month. The fact that Brailsford was ultimately medically retired instead of remaining fired was only revealed to the public in July 2019.
He just fucking executed him in the hallway and walked over his body, and he gets rewarded?
Yes, Daniel Shaver. It was horrible to watch. I hadn’t heard about the medical retirement or pension. I generally don’t advocate for violence, but if he came to a violent end, I would not shed any tears.
Daniel Shaver?
