A Florida family is "heartbroken" after a jury awarded $4 in damages for funeral expenses and pain and suffering in a case in which a St. Lucie County deputy fatally shot a father of three through his garage door, the family's attorney said Thursday.

Deputy Christopher Newman killed Gregory Hill Jr., 30, in 2014 after a mother picking up her child at a school across the street called in a noise complaint.

Newman and another deputy responded to Hill's home, Hill partially opened the garage door, closed it and Newman fired four times, hitting Hill three times, including once in the head, according to court and police records.

'Black lives don't matter," lawyer says after jury awards family $4 in police killing

Posters using "Wypipo" here should make clear whether they mean racists or all white people Bernardo de La Paz May 2018 #10

Wypipo by definition doesn't mean all white people. brer cat May 2018 #12

Which definition? Do you have a credible reference? Do all posters use your definition? Bernardo de La Paz May 2018 #13

It has been said repeatedly by people using the term. brer cat May 2018 #16

I've seen both usages. Using terms unclearly does not bridge gaps. I simply suggested clarity. Bernardo de La Paz May 2018 #17
