Discussion The easiest $30k this guy ever made

On October 26, 2022, the judge ruled that Walden's contact with Land should have ended when it became clear that Land was not sleeping in the park or in need of assistance, and that the city was not responsible for Walden's actions.

On November 22, 2022, the city settled the lawsuit for $30,000.

the point being made is that apparently sleeping in public IS a punishable offence.

Like... even if he was sleeping, who cares? Sure go check on him if there's anything wrong, but clearly he's doing fine. The only illegal thing he could be doing is whatever the officer decides to escalate the situation into, and at that point it's because the pig is the agitator.
