    Officer Joshua Pence, diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, had a conditional job offer from the Olathe Police Department rescinded in early 2021 after his neurologist recommended work restrictions in high temperatures. Pence filed a federal lawsuit alleging discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act, claiming he was otherwise qualified for the position and that the department failed to engage in an interactive process to accommodate his condition. The lawsuit seeks reinstatement and damages for alleged disability discrimination. ([kansascity.com](https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article257822123.html?utm_source=openai))

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
