TL;DR Summary

California will pay a $24 million civil rights settlement to the family of Edward Bronstein, who died in police custody after screaming "I can't breathe" as multiple officers restrained him while trying to take a blood sample. Seven California Highway Patrol officers and a nurse were charged with involuntary manslaughter earlier this year in connection with Bronstein's death. The settlement is the largest civil rights settlement of its kind by the state of California and the second largest nationally since the city of Minneapolis paid $27 million in the George Floyd case.
