In August 2007, Officer Eddie Davis was promoted to sergeant despite having been disciplined for using unnecessary force on a prisoner on August 14, 2006. The promotion led to a lawsuit by another officer, Kent Overton, who alleged reverse racial discrimination. The case was settled in June 2011, with the city agreeing to pay Overton $162,500.
