The point that Ken White of the Popehat blog said it best [1]:
"This case sickened me. But I can't say that it surprised me. The only thing out of it that would surprise me is if any of the individual police officers or sheriff's deputies faced any genuine significant consequences arising from it."
In other words, the victim gets a $1.6 million settlement comes out of the pockets of the taxpayers. There are zero personal consequences to the individual police officers actually responsible for what occurred in this case.
