The City of St. Louis will likely pay $5.2 million to settle a class-action lawsuit brought by nearly 100 people who say their civil rights were violated amid the heavy-handed police response to protests in 2017. The 84 plaintiffs are expected to receive about $58,500 per person. “I have not yet found a class-action settlement in America that pays out this much per person pertaining to a police response to a protest,” attorney Javad Khazaeli tells the RFT.
