Two police officers involved in a pepper-spraying incident at the University of California-Davis have been placed on leave, and over the weekend, the university’s faculty association called for the chancellor’s resignation. But Chancellor Linda Katehi told ABC’s Good Morning America on Monday that she’s staying put. “I really feel confident at this point the university needs me,” she told GMA. “There are so many critical issues to be addressed and we really need to start the healing process and move forward.”
I thinks she does, you give an order, praise the officers then throw them under the bus.. This Woman isn’t fit for the job that she holds.. She need to go ASAP..
The latest statement is a Uturn from the chancellor's original position.
Katehi at first spoke in support of the police, whom she had ordered to take down the UC Davis Occupy encampment, saying they had no other option. But she later called the footage 'chilling'.
Los Angeles attorney Okorie Okorocha said the use of the chemical spray was overly forceful and illogical.
'Tear gas you spray in the area you want people to move away from,' Okorocha told ABC News. 'Pepper spray is to keep the people from being able to mount an attack. Here the police officer is trying to disperse a crowd. Why would you incapacitate them?'
