A Black couple in Louisville, Kentucky, will receive a $75,000 settlement after being removed from their vehicle and searched by officers in 2018.
Demetria Firman and Anthony Parker Sr. will get the money under one condition, neither the couple nor their attorneys can criticize the Louisville Metro Government or the police officers involved.
The couple and Parker’s nine-year-old son had just left their church when officers pulled them over for allegedly not using a turn signal.
However, the body camera footage shows Parker did use his turn signal.
The couple believed they were pulled over because of their race, and they were driving a nice car.

Two of the officers involved in this incident are being sued in another case for stopping and searching a teenage boy for making a wide turn.
One of the officers, Kevin Crawford, resigned and now works in Indiana for Jefferson Police Department.
