Prosecutors said Pasadena police Officer Jaime Robison, 39, was supposed to be on disability for a lower back injury when she participated in the Ice Bucket Challenge.
In a video posted online in July 2014, Robison was shown picking up a five-gallon bucket containing ice water and pouring it over a fellow police officer, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
Many people drenched themselves in freezing water in the viral campaign known as the Ice Bucket Challenge, which raised money for ALS research.
The campaign swept the country with celebrities, children and law enforcement officials filming each other as buckets of ice were poured over their heads, later posting the videos on YouTube.
Prosecutors alleged Robison’s actions resulted in losses of up to $117,000.
The prosecution originally charged Robison with four counts of insurance fraud.
The prosecution also accused Robison of insurance fraud in 2012 when she received disability pay for more than a year. But the two counts stemming from that allegation were dismissed earlier this year.
However jurors acquitted Robison after a November Los Angeles courtroom trial.
