Grievance modified. The Arbitrator reduced the removal to a two day suspension with full back pay minus the two day suspension. This ruling was based on the fact that there was no conclusive evidence that the grievant and the inmate had fully disengaged when the grievant struck the inmate while the inmate was being subdued by other correction officers. Also, there was no prior discipline and the discipline grid provides for a two day suspension on a first offense.
