The Lost Angeles City council had stepped in to hold up the 2.7 million award..
Why?

The fireman who was 'hazed' had a history of puilling pranks himself...like helping shave the groin of a rookie and some other shenanigans...
Someone sent photos to a local radio station, in those pics Mr Pierce was clearly seen laughing and helping in the hazings.

The kicker?

The "civil rights" groups in the area are upset that the award is questioned.


Slavery and dog food?

what a stretch.
