Charges were officially dismissed on Friday in the case involving the arrest of a deaf man with Cerebral Palsy. The case has sparked a lot of outrage among local and national organizations as well as community members.

Oklahoma paid $175,000 to settle claims that its highway patrol used excessive force against Pearl Pearson, who sued after being injured during a 2014 traffic stop when he was unable to communicate or follow verbal directions. He was beaten "to a pulp," his lawyer Derek Burch said.
