The events of September 17, 2017 were expensive for the city of St. Louis. In the years since police used a “kettle” to mass-arrest dozens of people downtown, the city has settled with protesters and bystanders caught in the cordon. Now, with the $4.9 million settlement reached this week in a class-action lawsuit, the bill has hit a total of roughly $10 million. Attorneys Bill Freivogel, Eric Banks and Jennifer Joyce analyze the settlement and provide an update on the viral story about how GEICO paid a Missouri woman $5.2 million after she had sex in a car and contracted HPV.
