"Expanding Fallout: Two Additional Officers Terminated in Shocking Randy Cox Case"

Two more police officers in New Haven, Connecticut, have been fired in connection with the case of Richard "Randy" Cox, a man who was paralyzed from the chest down during police transport last June. The officers, Betsy Segui and Oscar Diaz, were terminated by the New Haven Board of Police Commissioners following an internal affairs probe. This comes after two other officers involved in the incident were fired earlier. Cox reached a $45 million settlement with the city and all five officers have been arrested on misdemeanor charges. Segui and Diaz plan to appeal their terminations.

Connecticut Police Officers Fired for Paralyzing Man in Custody

Two police officers in New Haven, Connecticut, were fired for their reckless actions and lack of compassion towards Richard “Randy” Cox, who was injured and became paralyzed in the back of a police van after his arrest last year. Cox had been arrested on allegations he threatened a woman with a gun, charges that later were dismissed. The officers and three others also face criminal charges. Cox is suing the officers and the city for $100 million.
