Ex-Black Panther leader to get $2.2M from Oakland after city councilwoman's attack

A former leader of the Black Panther Party will receive $2.2 million from the city of Oakland, Calif., to settle a 2015 case in which she was physically attacked by a city councilwoman.

The settlement, equivalent to the salaries of about 30 entry-level police officers, consists of $1.2 million in damages for Elaine Brown and a similar fee for her lawyers. Oakland’s city council approved the settlement Tuesday without any debate, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

The payout, to be paid from the city’s coffers, comes after more than two years of legal battles, in which the city rejected the ex-Black Panther leader’s request for $1 million following her confrontation with councilwoman Desley Brooks.

Mr Alnero
I have a serious question too ask

Why does the Gay comminty support open boarders and the democratic Socialist party ? It is mind boggling to me don't don't they realize that if we had open boarders and Islam spread throughout the world they would be the first one thrown off of buildings ? They should be backing Trump he will protect them not Idiots like Kahn the London mayor and Soros who just want world open boarders for chaos.

WOW. Millions of dollars from City of Oakland to "former" Black Panther member? Those "black cats" can buy a lots of guns & ammo, and they will. I don't think homies will be spending that money on ice cream and slushies at the local parlors. Oakland is just a ticking time bomb and it will be ugly when the street gangs have more firepower than local police. Well, its California, land of nuts, fruts and snowflakes.SMH.
