In November 2022, the City of Palmview, Texas, approved a settlement of $33,000 with Police Corporal Jorge Padron in a gender/sex discrimination lawsuit. In December 2020, Padron was charged with firing a pistol into the air while intoxicated. Although he pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge of illegally discharging a firearm within city limits, the Palmview Police Department fired him following his arrest. His case was later dismissed after witnesses said that he was not the person who fired the pistol. Padron filed a federal employment discrimination lawsuit against the City of Palmview, alleging that he did not receive progressive discipline in the same way as his female counterparts for similar situations. |
