I wonder how long it will take this formerly homeless women to be back out on the street once again homeless. $1.5 million is a significant windfall, but I don't see her staying off the streets for more than a few years.

The second part of that makes sense, but how is showering a trainload of tax-payer money on the victim justice? It goes a bit beyond compensation.

Once again the taxpayers are shelling out money because of a person that should probably never have been given a badge.

To where should I report to receive my $1.5 million beating? My wife would certainly spare me for a couple of weeks healing time to get in on that.

If it were $1.5 trillion, our nation would be spared further damage from California politics and social aberrations. California would go the way of Argentina.

$1.5 million is a significant windfall,Let's see, probably lawyers collect 'contingency ' fee - about 60%
IRS collects at least 35% - leaves about $225,000.
state taxes ? Medical? $
There's been many case where, after everyone else takes the gravy, there wasn't enough to settle the whole IRS bill - and they ended up bankrupt - but no matter what, you have to pay IRS.
Those who rake in the dough are everyone BUT the victim....

A woman who was punched repeatedly by a California Highway Patrol (CHP) officer in an incident caught on film earlier this year will receive $1.5M as part of a settlement reached Wednesday
Interesting. A knock-out blow to a woman wasn't even worth viewing on video by NFL commissioner Goodell.
Sorry, not trying to hijack the thread.

If she really was homeless by choice or by compulsion, I don’t see her ending that lifestyle. Some would prefer living on the street to living up to duties and responsibilities.
Wonder what happened to that skinny, hispanic homeless guy with the deep announcer’s voice? He was the ‘cats’ meow’ about five years back. Everybody’d new best friend.

In California 1.5 million is lower middle class.

The incident was caught on “FILM”? Really?
That is so annoying.

Thank goodness the officer saved her from possibly injury to herself by beating her to death. (What a piece of crap. This guy should be in jail.)

Pox, What does that matter in the context of the “peace” officer beating this woman? I could care less what she does with her money.

Well you would be wrong. The $1.5 million is being set up as a Trust for the lady. That way nobody can take advantage of her.
