Man Wins $4 Million In Lawsuit Against Chicago Police
A Chicago man believes that justice was served in his personal injury lawsuit against Chicago police.
Coprez Coffee, had alleged that three years ago, during a drug arrest, that a police officer had pushed a screwdriver into his rectum and another officer on the scene did nothing to prevent it or help him while it was happening.
The trial lasted for a week and jurors deliberated for three days before returning their verdict that the officer had in fact assaulted Coffee with the screwdriver.
Over the weekend, lawyers on both sides agreed that if the jury found in favor of Coffee, that the award for damages would be $4 million plus court costs and attorneys’ fees.
