As long as it costs taxpayers money and not police, there'll never be reform. Start taking it from their pension and I bet LEOs think twice.
I'm glad for the family but continue to be disgusted that our nation is clearly willing to write checks while never holding cops accountablehttps://twitter.com/LinseyDavis/status/879326873607602183 …

I'm writing about this today.

It's needed. I was doing the math of the $$ of settlements ChicagoPD was costing us vs the # of schools being closed because of no funding
-
I've done that math. it's outrageous.
-
Meanwhile we fund their vacations aka "paid leave" and a trial that costs us millions to only result in an acquittal & back-pay. Wtf

I understand the difference btwn a civil lawsuit vs a criminal one, but it's disgusting that one clearly understands murder was committed.

People were willing to die to preserve slavery. A few billion seems like a bargain to preserve racist police culture. USA clings to it

What does it say about our government that they'd rather pay out millions to victims of killer cops than try to stop cops from killing

Arguably, $3 million to quiet the family. We must not be quiet.

Start taking the settlements out of the police pension funds. Make officers carry individual policies, too.
-
No, city funds. Because they manage the force. Individual officers will comply with policy as established by mayor, council, chief
-
How about 50/50? The police need skin in the game. Currently they have none, hence the cavalier attitude by many of them toward reform.
-
Spoken like someone who carries a malpractice policy ;-) Deal.

Also doesn't make sense how in this country, settlement doesn't equal to admission of guilt

I'm pretty sure that the group of people who don't want cops held accountable is not "willing" to write a check.
