PATERSON — The Paterson police officer who has been on paid administration leave for nearly seven years over allegations he forced a female prisoner to perform oral sex on him at police headquarters could receive $70,000 in paid leave time when his impending retirement becomes official, according to a news report.
The case of Officer Manuel Avila has cost the Silk City more than $1.6 million since he was first charged with forcing a female prisoner to give him oral sex in 2007, which allegedly occurred just days after a psychological evaluation concluded he should not carry a gun and was not fit to be a member of the department, according to the Paterson Press.
Avila was acquitted of criminal charges related to the sexual assault case in 2011, but the city later settled a civil lawsuit with the alleged victim's family for $710,000. The city has filed paperwork to terminate Avila on charges of conduct unbecoming of an officer and neglect of duty, but disciplinary hearings have dragged on for years, according to the report.
With more than 25 years on the force, Avila is eligible to retire with a full pension that includes lifetime medical benefits. Avila is one of eight police officers and nine firefighters whose impending retirements will cost the city $1.65 million in leave time alone.
