About
Ronald Greene was a Black motorist who died in 2019 following an arrest by Louisiana police. Recent news highlights a $4.85 million settlement reached between the state police, a local sheriff's office, and Greene's daughter. The settlement comes after Greene's family pursued legal action following his death, which involved him being tased, punched, and dragged during the arrest. Attorney Ben Crump stated that while the money cannot erase the pain, the settlement signifies that the truth is coming to light. This development is significant as it represents a substantial legal resolution in a case involving alleged police brutality. The payout underscores the ongoing efforts to seek justice and accountability in cases of motorist deaths during police encounters.
