By far my favorite example is the UC Davis pepper spray event. Where sitting sedintary protestors were pepper sprayed by campus police (the school then engaged a PR firm to attempt to wipe evidence from the internet...)
"The three dozen student demonstrators, meanwhile, were collectively awarded US$1 million by UC Davis in a settlement from a federal lawsuit, with each pepper-sprayed student receiving $30,000 individually."
