Beverly Hills will shell out $2.3 million to settle a discrimination lawsuit lodged by a former high-ranking police officer against its police chief. Chief Sandra Spagnoli allegedly disgraced herself by calling yarmulkes worn by observant Jews “funny little hats,” asking if she had to “dress Mexican” when invited to dinner at a Latino employee’s home, and reacting with revulsion when she was told an employee was gay, according to the Los Angeles Times.
