In the United States, 47-year-old Cassandra Goldstein was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. Police officer Michael Hart slammed her against a concrete bench. The impact resulted in multiple facial fractures, the loss of several teeth, and permanent vision loss in one eye, requiring the implantation of a titanium plate. Officer Hart, who had 19 years of service, was dismissed and sentenced to two years in prison. Following legal proceedings against the police department, Cassandra was awarded $810,000 in compensation.
