    the LAPD leading the spending at more than $100 million in legal settlements. Recent payouts include a $17.7 million settlement with the family of a mentally disabled man who was fatally shot by an off-duty officer inside a Costco, and a $11.8 million payout to a man who sustained a traumatic brain injury in a car accident when an LAPD detective ran a red light.

    Yeah it should be illegal to let the LAPD pull funding from taxpayers for things like this.

    Take it out of their pensions.

    That way the older, senior officers will get pissed at anyone who does something to warrant payouts. And they’ll quickly reform.
