The City of Ferguson, Missouri, has agreed to pay $4.5 million to settle a federal lawsuit that accused it of violating the constitutional rights of thousands of people who said they were jailed without due process because they could not pay fines. nyti.ms/42W2tRh
@nytimes Well, it’s the tax payers dime, so it’s no skin off the noses of those who perpetrated the crime. Now if there is jail time involved, you know others will take notice.
@nytimes How come this guy hasn’t been jailed? He can’t pay his fines either and he had due process. Trump is prepared to post $100 million bond but not the full $454 million judgment, lawyers say. fortune.com/2024/02/28/don…
@nytimes And none of these racist, scumbag cops goes to jail? What a complete travesty.
