 Overlawyered: Drypen v. Oakland County, Michigan
Deputies say (and the family disputes that) Drypen charged deputies up the stairs with the knife raised; he was shot from a mere twelve feet away in self-defense, and killed.
Prosecutors called the killing justified self-defense and did not press charges after a three-month investigation, but the Drypen family sued--and now Oakland County taxpayers are out $4 million ($1.42 million to attorney Jules Olsman) because the County settled without admitting wrongdoing.
Often the press repeats the fact that officers fired many times as evidence that excessive force was used, when, in fact, officers are trained to keep firing until a threat is stopped.
