    1. @Joe Sniffs Kids And how many NDAs have had to be signed by those currently employed by trump at the government level?? Or those sued by trump and his organizations to settle?? NOT A DEMOCRATIC organization issue!! Mostly used by the rich and the wealthy republican types and organizations to hide the truth from the public and media!!

    2. @Joe Sniffs Kids NDA’s and Democrats are unrelated …. Nice attempt to tie two unrelated subjects.. What’s next? Correlating data between apples and condoms?

    3. Shhh…, don’t tell anyone: not the City, but the hard working tax payers and property owners will be paying the dope dealer’s girlfriend’s family $12, 000, 000.00. Please don’t tell anyone one this—Justice for Breana Taylor. Say her name! And the ambulance chaser will receive 33%.

  1. Once again, the taxpayers bear the burden of an unaccountable, undisciplined, and immoral police force. Time and time again, in cities big and small, from coast to coast, the police act abusively, violently, and with utter disrespect for justice and the law- and they NEVER suffer any consequences for it. We just add the damages to the tally, and move on. And then it happens again. And again. And again.

    1. THESE LAWSUITS ARE NOT PAID OUT BY INSURANCE…THE COMMUNITY PAYS….YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK…IN 2014 POLICE FORCE ACROSS THE NATION PAID OUT $248.7 MILLION IN SETTLEMENTS..NYC IN 2017, ALONE PAID OUT $302 MILLION…IT LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD BE CHEAPER TO ADD MORE TRAINING, AND MORE PSYCHIATRY COST….JUST HOPE AND PRAY, OUR CITY AND STATES THINK SO ALSO…BECAUSE TRUMP DON’T….

    2. @Thomas Ray – You should be a police person so you can show them how it’s done. Not going to happen? Well, it’s because you are a coward and would never make it through the police academy.

    3. @Gary King Look it the mirror and say that. It doesn’t matter if the city has insurance, chances are they don’t have $12 million for single suits. This piece of schitt rode with the criminals and died with the criminals. It was her choice.

    4. @C W policing doesn’t even break the top ten in dangerous jobs. None of us are crying about it or expecting praise for it.

    5. Trump: I love stupid people and stupid people love me!

      Clearly y’all Trump bootlickers only want to incite resentment towards citizens awarded money because of police wrongdoing by lying to people about who pays the settlements. REAL REPUBLICANS know how business work and have no sympathy for insurance companies.
      Y’all sons and daughters of the Confederacy just can’t hide. RACIST MOFOs!!!

  2. Great job. Now hold them accountable judicially. Money is not everything. BLM demands it and have been marching for it.

  3. THAT IS A START…WE ALSO WANT POLICE OFFICERS WITH COMPLAINTS AGAINST THEM HELD ACCOUNTABLE…IT IS A CRIME FOR A POLICEMAN TO HAVE COMPLAINTS AGAINST THEM, STILL ON THE FORCE. IN ANY OTHER JOB THERE IS, A PUNISHMENT FORUM….HOLD POLICE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THESE CPMPLAINTS…..

  4. _Last month was the hottest June ever recorded in Earth’s history, with temperatures nearly 20 degrees Fahrenheit above average_ https://www.businessinsider.com/hottest-june-ever-recorded-last-month-2019-7 Last week, Europe experience a severe heat wave: Parts of France, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Spain saw record high temperatures. July 3, 2019
    According to a European satellite agency, average temperatures were up to 18 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius) above normal for parts of the continent.
    The agency concluded that last month was the hottest June ever recorded.
    Unless greenhouse-gas emissions aren’t cut significantly and quickly, the world can expect to see more extreme heat waves in the future because of climate change.

    1. Never going to happen. If they wanted that, they wouldn’t have settled for 12 mil of taxpayer dollars from a crooked mayor with nothing to lose.

  5. Breonna Taylor’s family to receive $12M settlement well i guess thugs thieves murders repasts child molesters are safe now this just proves it crime relay dose pay thees days now all the kids have new heroes like thees thugs thieves murders repasts child molesters its a shamed of the lessons the teach young children

  6. No knock, communication issues, SMEAR ATTEMPT. 😠 12 million for the CIVIL…
    Now let’s see about the CRIMINAL. Especially that attempt to slander! 😠😈

  7. Y’all BOCUS… Her life has a price for y’all… Meanwhile, we marching, crying, and screaming for her and others… This is beyond sad, and a whole conspiracy… #StayWoke
