Alex Wubbels, the Utah nurse who was forcibly arrested in July after refusing to draw a patient's blood without consent, a police warrant, or probable cause, received a large settlement from Salt Lake City and the University of Utah on Tuesday.
Wubbels settled for $500,000.
According to ABC News, Wubbels plans to use a portion of her settlement to fund legal assistance for those trying to obtain bodycam footage.
Wubbels — who is still employed at the University of Utah Hospital — said, "We all deserve to know the truth, and the truth comes when you see the actual raw footage, and that's what happened in my case. No matter how truthful I was in telling my story, it was nothing compared to what people saw and the visceral reaction people experienced when watching the footage of the experience I went through."
