By the time the lawyers take their $2.5M the rest will be split between five illegitimate kids, five baby mommas, his mom, and cling ons (Gravy). Once they get taxed on it they won’t get jack, but not the point...$0.01 of my tax dollars to pay for this is too much.

It’s insurance that covers it. It’s not $4.5m laying around. Hence the taxes or fees going up because the premiums are going to go up.


Yes, self insurance. Meaning your tax dollars, not anything from a commercial liability policy they pay premiums for.

The joke of this bull chit is that IF a jury awarded anywhere near that kind of money it would never hold up on appeal to the First Circuit.

This is absolutely disgusting. Alton Sterling and his family should not get one tax payer dollar.
This is nothing more than a scheme to fill the pockets of criminals and politicians.

Rowdy and his other fake republicans should be recalled.

Please do and get multiple tax payers including businesses, homeowners and try to find a small government agency that could use some of the money.

The good news is it will frivolously make it back into the tax base because I am sure it will be spent rapidly.



SOme items purchased with this money will probably not be taxed

Nah. After they pay 30% of that in lawyer fees then another 35% in taxes and split it 10 ways between the family they maybe can each buy a Charger

don't think this guy understands the historical significance of that phrase and how ironic it is that he wants the city, which he accuses of running a racist police department, to move towards paying that money with. .


I thought the exact same thing. Plus, like most, he doesn’t even know what the word deliberate means.

40% + fees to attorneys, more like family gets 40% before personal tax implications. Not unusual for fees to run 15-20%.the 40% for attorneys is income to them
