New reports of Los Angeles Police Department officer Houston Tipping‘s tragic and “accidental” death make it seem like he may have actually been targeted for reporting the sexual misconduct of one of his fellow officers.
The 32-year-old died from a severe spinal cord injury suffered on the job in May. Only he was serving as a bicycling instructor in the local police academy at the time — and his death was during some kind of training with other officers. His death was already the focus of some pretty serious controversy — and it just got more complicated.
Back in June, attorney Bradley Gage filed a damages claim against the PD on behalf of the deceased’s mother Shirley Huffman, who believed her son was beaten to death during a “mob simulation” exercise. According to the claim, Tipping had been beaten in the head, which caused multiple lacerations and fatal neck injuries. Seems like way too much for a training exercise, right?

LAPD Chief Michael Moore said they’d got it wrong — that the deputy had actually died when he fell from a tremendous height while grappling with another officer, that the fall had resulted in “a catastrophic injury” to his spinal cord. Moore claims the young officer suffered no lacerations to his head — but Gage came to court in July in with MRI results from Tipping’s time in the hospital. The scans revealed the officer had multiple staples in his head due to his injury, and signed reports from medical professionals say he had spinal cord injuries, a collapsed lung, broken ribs, and liver damage consistent with a beating. Not a fall.
Yeah, it allegedly didn’t seem to align with with the chief’s story. The lawyer said to the court

Kevin Spacey rested their case on Wednesday, while attempting to paint Anthony Rapp as a narcissist who is bringing a $40 million sexual misconduct lawsuit against the Oscar-winning actor in order to draw attention to himself. Rapp only wanted to attend a “highly publicized hearing with media attention,” Spacey’s attorney Chase Scolnick asserted at one point. To push that line of attack, Scolnick grilled forensic psychiatrist Alexander Bardey about Rapp’s emotional state. He claimed the actor was attention-seeking and showed no signs of post-traumatic stress disorder, citing the fact that Rapp told friends about the encounter with Spacey over the years, but never revealed the incident to his therapist.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Arcade Fire is having trouble keeping name acts in the opening slots for its arena tours. Beck has now dropped out of his position as the opener for the group’s U.S. tour, without any explanation so far. In an email sent to ticket buyers, Beck was described only as “unfortunately no longer able to join Arcade Fire on their upcoming North American tour. Taking his place will be Boukman Eksperyans,” described as a Grammy-nominated Haitian roots band. Contacted by Variety, Beck’s reps declined to comment on his bowing out. The move was not necessarily a surprise, as fans had already been speculating whether the singer-songwriter might exit the Arcade Fire outing, after Win Butler was accused of sexual misconduct in an August Pitchfork article.
