Freelance journalist Donovan Farley will file a lawsuit after being struck, pepper sprayed while covering a protest last year.
After a review, Portland s top prosecutor has declined to charge a police officer who pepper sprayed and hammered baton strikes on a reporter filming the arrest of a protester last year.
But the matter is far from settled. Donovan Farley, the freelance journalist whose first-person account of the incident went viral, will sue the city instead, according to his lawyer. The conduct is excessive force and arbitrary assault and battery, said Jane Moisan, an attorney with the People s Law Project. Mr. Farley was not behaving illegally and should have been able to rely on being safe around law enforcement.
