“On Friday, a Maryland jury awarded millions of dollars to Korryn Gaines’ family, which had filed a wrongful death civil suit over her 2016 shooting death at the hands of police in Baltimore County.
“According to a WBAL-TV report, jurors ruled that Baltimore County Police Officer Royce Ruby acted unreasonably when he opened fire on Gaines, who had barricaded herself in an apartment and fired a weapon at officers. Ruby had opened fire first.
“Gaines’ then-1-year-old son, Kodi, was also injured in the Aug. 1, 2016, shooting.”
