  • Two people arrested during the April protests against Israel's war in Gaza at Ohio State University have filed a lawsuit against university president Ted Carter and university police officer Susan Liu.

The article from WOSU discusses a lawsuit filed by two Ohio State University graduate students, who were arrested during pro-Palestinian protests on campus in April. The students, identified as Weihsiu "Isaac" Chiu and Christopher J. Jones, allege that their arrests were unjust and violated their First Amendment rights. They claim that the university and Columbus police used excessive force and did not provide clear warnings before dispersing the crowd. The lawsuit also mentions that the university's actions were in retaliation for their participation in the protests. The students are seeking damages for emotional distress, loss of educational opportunities, and legal fees. The university has not yet responded to the lawsuit but has previously stated that they aim to balance free speech with campus safety.
