Scars - they are worth some dough. Figure maybe about $10K - $20K plus lost wages and if he's really good - emotional trauma.
But how's this for a X-files type scenario:
My friend did a project for US Navy (civilian job) and after he came back from the lunch he doesn't remember much - like he lost time or something. The next thing he remembers is paramedics trying to load him up in an ambulance with both shoulders dislocated. Had a surgery to remove bone fragments from the sockets and had a rod inserted to put his shoulders back in place. No signs of epilepsy, no drugs, nothing - clean as a whistle and no other bruises, concussions or marks. THe doctor said that his shoulders resembled the cases like someone being restrained - usually after forceful arrest or something. No one saw jack shit, no one took responsibility and claim they "just found him like that". He was not trespassing or doing anything illegal. Moreover - he didn't have medical at the time and ended up paying for ER and surgery out of his pocked - no small change $40K! Lost that job (he was a contractor) because he was trying to sue, no attorney would take the case because it's too complicated and still does not have a full use of his arms.
Now, how's that for a story?
