agimarc,
The nurse has stated that at this time she is NOT filing a law suit. Says she wants there to be civil discourse and changes. The Salt Lake City folks (mayor, police department) should spare no expense at addressing the problems raised by this incident. They are very lucky so far, that they are not Face with a huge law suit.
By the way, not everyone in this litigious society chose to file a law suit. Sometimes, depending on what the person's goal is, NOT suing, can gain far more change. Law suits can become very long and drawn out. It takes an emotional toll on folks not to mention the expense involved. 
Once a very wise attorney I knew told me you rarely see the "best civil attorneys" in a courtroom because they have the skills and ability to settle outside of court. But when you do see them take it to a courtroom they win every time. Not sure how true this is, but I think the skills a attorney has to settle disputes away from court is something worth looking at.
