Policewoman Officer Wins Breastfeeding Case Against Tuscaloosa

Bonus WYHI?

Federal judges ruled Thursday that a Tuscaloosa police officer's rights as a breastfeeding mother were protected by anti-discrimination laws.
In 2013, former Tuscaloosa Police Officer Stephanie Hicks sued the Tuscaloosa Police Department after she said the department created a hostile work environment, demoted her and essentially forced her to quit.
Last year a federal jury agreed, awarding her $374,000 in damages after finding the department violated the Pregnancy Discrimination Act.

Well this is Tuscaloosa we're talking about...

Before Hicks became pregnant in 2011, she'd been an investigator in Tuscaloosa PD narcotics division. After she told her captain of the pregnancy, he reassigned her to the less-hazardous pharmaceuticals unit.
When she returned from maternity leave, she said she was subjected to write-ups for bogus infractions in retaliation for taking the 12 weeks of maternity leave allowed under the Family Medical Leave Act, and endured hostility over taking breaks to pump breast milk for her infant son.
She was eventually moved to patrol duty, which meant a pay cut, later hours, and that she'd have to wear a bullet-proof vest.
Here is the main complaint.

If all that is true, then the department is in the wrong. But, I feel like we're only getting one side.

A jury heard both sides and believed that one. As did a panel of federal appeals judges.
It's unlikely that there is a legit other side, here, other than blatant discrimination.

OP said federal judge - despite what's on TV shows not every case goes before a jury. Even if it did ...
A jury let OJ off.

I don't get the stigma against breast feeding. It's much better for the baby and is a mother simply caring for her newborn.
