RadioOnFire.com - Three weeks after he was acquitted at his murder trial, Baltimore City Police Officer Caesar Goodson will get 13 months of back pay, from the time he was charged until the time he was acquitted.
Without debate, the five member Baltimore City Board of Estimates unanimously approved a proposal to give $87,705 to Goodson.
That figure reflects back pay from May 1, 2015, when the charges against Goodson was announced until June 22, the day before Goodson was acquitted.
The move is required under the city's contract with the FOP. Goodson's salary was restored on June 23, when he was acquitted.
Baltimore City Solicitor George Nilson says the city does not have the discretion to alter the FOP contract.
