Breonna Taylor’s family received $12 MILLION in wrongful death settlement!!! This is huge!!! I’ve personally never seen it that high for a black woman wrongfully murdered by police!!!

This is a BIG win and concludes the CIVIL case her family had against the city/state. It shows the tone for this case considering how high the amount is.

The criminal case IS SEPARATE and involves a higher/diff burden of proof
(Continued) The criminal case is STILL ONGOING and this huge win in TJ separate civil action does not mean the cops will not be prosecuted or face consequences.

But right now WE ARE ABSOLUTELY celebrating the fact that her family isn’t walking away with chump change!
*the
Let me clarify: I meant highest SETTLEMENT offer from a city/state I’ve seen concerning the life of a black woman.

There are some that have received more in jury trials.
