The city of Vallejo has agreed to pay $300,000 to a man who filed an excessive use of force lawsuit against the city's police department.

Adrian Burrell, a filmmaker and U.S. Marine veteran, was tackled by officer David McLaughlin in 2019 for reportedly filming a traffic stop. McLaughlin reportedly tackled Burrell in an attempt to prevent his actions from being recorded. Burrell filmed the interaction from his porch. When Burrell refused to stop filming at McLaughlin's request, he allegedly holstered his weapon and walked toward Burrell.

"I was assaulted by a police officer who participated in blood rituals, the bending of badges to celebrate murders of black and brown folks," Burrell added in his statement. "No amount of money can give back what was taken from me during this violent assault nor during the dehumanizing, patronizing and disrespectful litigation process."McLaughlin has been a Vallejo police officer since 2014 and was previously in the Oakland Police Department.

The complaint alleges they falsified a police report saying that Cooley was in possession of a controlled substance, but the Solano County District Attorney's Office later abandoned those charges. The civil case was dismissed after Cooley died.

Leon Black accused in lawsuit of raping woman in Jeffrey Epstein's mansionLeon Black, the billionaire co-founder of private equity firm Apollo Global Management Inc, was sued on Monday by a woman who said he raped her two decades ago in the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan mansion. Cheri Pierson said she had been a cash-strapped single mother who had already given Epstein five massages for $300 each, when the financier arranged in the spring of 2002 for her to massage Black for $300. She said Black, who was eight inches taller and weighed more than twice as much, without her consent physically overwhelmed her and caused 'excruciating pain' in their encounter on the third floor of Epstein's home.
