TopicSt. Louis to pay $5 million to cop beaten during protest

The City of St. Louis will pay $5 million to a Black police officer who was assaulted in 2017 by white officers while working undercover during a protest, according to a settlement agreement obtained by 5 On Your Side.

Officer Luther Hall was working undercover during the protests that followed the acquittal of a police officer who had been charged with the 2011 murder of a Black drug suspect.

Five officers have been federally indicted for their alleged roles in the beating and are not included in the city's settlement. The city has 45 days to pay Hall, according to the agreement.

The agreement was signed by Mayor Lyda Krewson, Lt. Col. Lawrence O'Toole and Sgt. Joseph Marcantano, so the civil claims he's filed against the officers accused of beating him are ongoing.

In his civil lawsuit against the city, Hall claimed Krewson made a comment about how he had messed up his cute face, during an elevator ride following the attack and later denied knowing about the assault.

He also claimed fellow officers tried to cover up the beating, during which Hall a 22-year veteran of the police force was kicked in the face, leaving him unable to eat.

He also suffered a tailbone injury and a 2-centimeter laceration above one of his lips. He also had surgery to repair herniated discs in his neck and back, according to the lawsuit.

He also accused Marcantano of participating in the beating, getting promoted to sergeant afterwards.

Officers Christopher Myers, Dustin Boone, Randy Hays and Bailey Colletta were federally indicted for their alleged roles in the assault first.

Federal prosecutors allege Boone, Hays and Myers threw Hall to the ground and kicked and hit him with a police baton. Colletta was indicted for lying to a grand jury.

In her guilty plea, Colletta said she and the other officers believed Hall was a protester and ordered him to his knees when the other officers tackled him.

In his lawsuit, Hall claimed he was investigating protesters who had damaged property downtown and saw officers fire bean bag rounds and use pepper spray on the crowd without justification.

Hall also claimed he did not hear police order the crowd to disperse before they used force.

A fifth officer, Steve Korte, was federally indicted in 2019 for civil rights violations and lying to the FBI by claiming he was not involved in Halls arrest.

Hall remains employed by the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, but it's unclear whether he's returned to duty.

Other lawsuits are still pending against the City involving citizens who claim police officers also used unjustified force against them, especially during a technique known as "kettling" in which officers forced dozens of protesters together to arrest them. A St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter was among them.

O'Toole was acting police chief at the time, and drew criticism after declaring, "we owned the night" during a press conference following the mass arrests. Hall was beaten that same night.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/15/us/politics/adam-kinzinger-republicans-trump.html
Two days after Mr. Kinzinger called for removing Mr. Trump from office following the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, 11 members of his family sent him a handwritten two-page letter, saying he was in cahoots with the devils army for making a public break with the president.

Oh my, what a disappointment you are to us and to God! they wrote. You have embarrassed the Kinzinger family name!

The author of the letter was Karen Otto, Mr. Kinzingers cousin, who paid $7 to send it by certified mail to Mr. Kinzingers father to make sure the congressman would see it, which he did. She also sent copies to Republicans across Illinois, including other members of the states congressional delegation.
I wanted Adam to be shunned, she said in an interview.
A 42-year-old Air National Guard pilot who represents a crescent-shaped district along the Chicagos suburbs, Mr. Kinzinger is at the forefront of the effort to navigate post-Trump politics. He is betting his political career, professional relationships and kinship with a wing of his sprawling family that his partys future lies in disavowing Mr. Trump and the conspiracy theories the former president stoked.

Mr. Kinzinger was one of just three House Republicans who voted both to impeach Mr. Trump and strip Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia from her committee posts. During the House impeachment debate, he asked Democrats if he could speak for seven minutes instead of his allotted one, so that he could make a more authoritative and bipartisan argument against the president; the request was denied.

He has taken his case to the national media, becoming a ubiquitous figure on cable television, late-night HBO programming and podcasts. He began a new political action committee with a six-minute video declaring the need to re-format the Republican Party into something resembling an idealized version of George W. Bushs party with an emphasis on lower taxes, hawkish defense and social conservatism without the grievances and conspiracy theories that Mr. Trump and his allies have made central to the partys identity.
