A judge has ordered the enforcement of a lawsuit settlement between Mississippi's capital city and the family of a man who died after police officers pulled him from a car while searching for a murder suspect.
George Robinson, 62, died in January 2019, days after the encounter with three Jackson police officers. His relatives sued the city in October 2019, saying Robinson was not the subject of any warrant and alleging the officers “brutally, viciously and mercilessly beat Mr. Robinson by striking and kicking him.”
