"It was not enough." You are darn right on that.
Any settlement which doesn't involve seppuku on the part of the police officers is not enough.

I wonder why he can’t sue each cop individually?
and
Why aren’t they in jail?

Not included in the article:
Is tbis victim of police brutality still alive?
Has he sustained ongoing injuries ?
Has his wife been moved to a care facility?
Why did all this take most 5 years to be resolved?

Why did all this take most 5 years to be resolved? They were hoping he'd give up the ghost and therefore the case would go away.

He is still alive. I first saw this on video at youtube but I know how much you all hate just videos so I found a news sources.

I’m glad you found the story.
He’s a tough old bird.
The police would bark and cuss at him, he barked and cursed right back. Righteous anger.
To: Morgana
Back the blue till it happens to you.

He asked his wife why she called the police. She says, I thought you shot me.

I stopped back in the blue in 2015. They sat back and watched Trump supporters get beat.

Why did all this take most 5 years to be resolved?It’s too long, but I just read another article, a few minutes ago, saying it took 14 years to settle. Sucks.

The cops lied about him being “non-compliant”.
As far as being thrown on the ground? Oh, he “slipped and fell”.
Video has done a lot to get to the truth in these stories. It protects both the citizen and the police.

If this guy was black there’d be hell to pay. Homes and businesses would be burned to the ground.

If cops respond to a scene where there's a report of someone having been shot of course they're gonna come in hot. And men surely *do* shoot their wives in the head...and elsewhere. But it seems that they might have gone at least a bit overboard. IMO $250K might have been reasonable...assuming the guy wasn't seriously injured.
To: Fiji Hill
So what’s the alternative? Lock and load? LOL
