`No block party:’ after CHOP lawsuits are over, ‘city will end up paying millions,’ attorney tells Dori

“Before the legal smoke clears, I expect the city will end up paying millions,” attorney Mark Lindquist told The Dori Monson Show on Monday.

DORI MONSON SHOWNow that at least one lawsuit has been settled out of court in connection with Seattle’s 2020 racial justice protests in the now-dismantled, another legal wave against the city of Seattle and its taxpayers believes it is gaining momentum.

Seattle Police say surveillance video shows the teen – called Lorenzo – was shot and died in June 2020 after arguing with another man near CHOP. The six-block protestor-created police-free area was also known as CHAZ – the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone surrounding the Seattle Police East Precinct.

Lindquist referenced former Mayor Jenny Durkan calling CHOP activities “the summer of love” and a “block party” in the days and weeks following the Minneapolis killing of George Floyd.Lindquist said Friday’s settlement is the “first of many defeats that the city is going to have. It’s some accountability, but it’s not full accountability.”
