Here is what occured after the incident. (I am not in support of reddit's action, just providing context.)
> John Pike was subsequently fired, despite a recommendation that he face disciplinary action but be kept on the job. As of August 2014, Alex Lee was no longer listed in a state salary-database as working at UC Davis.
> In October 2013, a judge ruled that Lt. John Pike, the lead pepper sprayer, would be paid $38,000 in worker's compensation benefits, to compensate for “[the] suffering he experienced after the incident”. Apart from the worker's compensation award, he retained his retirement credits. The three dozen student demonstrators, meanwhile, were collectively awarded US$1 million by UC Davis in a settlement from a federal lawsuit, with each pepper-sprayed student receiving $30,000 individually.
Here is the legal declaration by John Pike "detailing harassment and threats to him after he was identified as an officer who was involved in the Incident."
