Ex-Cop Who Shared Explicit Pics of Slain Student Seeks Millions in Compensation
Five ex-officers from University of Utah Police, including the former chief, are claiming at least $10 million for "permanent and irreparable career damage" after they were accused of mishandling the case of slain student Lauren McCluskey.
A copy of the former officers' legal notice against the university, submitted to the state attorney general's office, was first obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune via a public records request. The five include Miguel Deras, who showed explicit photos of McCluskey to male colleagues in the days leading up to her death.
McCluskey, a 21-year-old student at the university, was shot dead on October 22, 2018. Her ex-boyfriend, Melvin Rowland, was suspected of the killing and took his own life hours later.
McCluskey had reported Rowland, 37, to the university police after the couple's break-up in early October, because he had sent her messages threatening to release "compromising images" if she did not pay him. McCluskey had forwarded the images to Deras as evidence.

What a fucked up sense of entitlement.
