Austin Berg, vice president of marketing at the Illinois Policy Institute, talks about the impact of police misconduct settlements on the wallets of Chicago taxpayers.A Black woman who settled with the city of Chicago for nearly $3 million after she was handcuffed while naked by police officers during a botched raid of her home says "there’s no amount of money that will right this wrong" and that changes are needed to the Chicago Police Department.

Young said during an interview that aired Friday on "CBS Mornings" that the officers ignored her, including as she repeatedly told them they were at the wrong address. The botched raid and the city’s handling of it prompted anger from clergy, lawmakers and civil rights activists who decried it as racist and an affront to a Black woman’s dignity.

She added that, "I would have been more satisfied if all 12 officers had got fired and I didn’t receive a dime.
