Chicago’s City Council is scheduled to vote Wednesday on a $2.9 million settlement for Anjanette Young, who became the victim of a botched police raid on her.
Chicago City Council approved a $2.9 million settlement with Anjanette Young, a Black woman police handcuffed while naked during a wrongful 2019 raid on her home.
On Monday, members of City Council's finance committee unanimously endorsed a recommendation to pay $2.9 million to Anjanette Young to resolve the lawsuit she brought after police officers handcuffed her while she was naked and ignored her pleas for help during a botched raid in February 2019.
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration is proposing a $2.9 million settlement for Anjanette Young over a botched police raid, according to reports.
The agenda for the meeting of the City Council’s Finance Committee set for 10 a.m. Monday does not identify the amount the city would pay Anjanette Young and her attorneys to resolve the case, an indication that a final agreement is close, but is not yet final, sources told WTTW News.
