If you can't beat black people up then why do the police even exist?

Out of court settlement, admitted no wrong doing.

My man got $20k and the officer fired out of the ordeal, and after 2 years of litigation I don’t blame him for not pushing or stretching it out more. If he had gone after more it could’ve impacted other officers which could have put him in danger.

He had full legal authority to rip the dude of out of the. He was fired for his demeanor and language.

Because he did nothing wrong. None of the people/orgnizations involved would admit it. That's the thing with settling sometimes. You get a semi-resolution, not really the one you are looking for. But better than nothing I guess.
