That's absurd! My sister lost her right arm in a boating accident and her life insurance paid more than that for the loss of limb! WTF? They caused life long damage to her body for mistreatment from cops? Fuck that. That's disgusting. This shit has to stop and I hope she gets a jury to give her some more money. A prosthetic arm costs more than 75k.
