ST. LOUIS (AP) — A federal judge on Tuesday approved a settlement in the wrongful-death lawsuit filed by the parents of Michael Brown, an unarmed, black 18-year-old, whose fatal shooting by a white police officer nearly three years ago in Ferguson, Missouri, set off months of protests.
Financial terms of the settlement approved by U.S. District Judge E. Richard Webber were not disclosed. Anthony Gray, the attorney for Brown's parents, declined comment, as did Ferguson Mayor James Knowles III.

Pay-a-thug liberals succeed again!
Why on earth should any govt pay millions to the family of a violent CRIMINAL THUG who gets himself shot in the course of attacking an officer of the law?????
Stand back and watch the family/relatives fight over the money.
Sickening
Hands up, indeed.
Two years of free Swisher Sweets and a custom-made lighter?
Hands outstretched, palms up.
WTF and I hope Michael ISN'T resting in peace, the filthy thug that he was.
How about if Michael Brown’s family pays a settlement to the police officer he was trying to disarm and kill when he was shot and all of Brown’s other victims of thugishness, like the store owner he pushed around, since that was caused by his lousy upbringing?
What is the settlement for the Quik Trip that was burned to the ground and all of the employees who lost their jobs?
Oh wait.. He was WHITE so.. TOOOOOO BAD..
They'll buy a $2 million house and five $200k cars in the first week.
Will the Indian store owner /employee now sue the family for robbery and assault?
It’s Ferguson, MO. What else can you say?
Rob a store, try to kill a cop, and your family ends up rich. That was Obama’s America.
wrongful-death lawsuit ???????
I thought he needed killin, at least according to the news sources, otherwise the killer would be in jail right?
Where do regular citizens get these new fancy dictionaries with these alternate meanings to words??
They should not have given a plug nickel to that “family” of a dirtbag criminal. Disgusting.
Insane.
Unarmed my foot. His massive hands, attached to his massive body that reached into the police vehicle, were his weapon.
Yep.
I find it hard to believe that the Obama administration did not have their finger on the scale in this settlement.
And keeping with His Arrogance’s DOJ transparency practices, seal the case!
whatever the amount is...if it must be paid...first deduction the price of all that destruction to the city and thievery...
it was the Brown family and their cohorts who enticed the rioters to burn down stores and loot...
compensate the store owners and others first..
