Oscar Diaz – Connecticut State Division of Criminal Justice

Written by CBKN76

Former New Haven police officer Oscar Diaz was involved in a 2022 incident that left Richard ‘Randy’ Cox paralyzed. Diaz, along with four other officers, was charged with cruelty to persons and reckless endangerment. He was fired in 2023 after an internal affairs investigation. Cox’s family won a $45 million settlement with the city. ([ctinsider.com](https://www.ctinsider.com/news/article/ct-police-officer-decertification-list-2024-18639166.php?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.
