Wallingford: the mayoral veto and the charter revision. But we’ve been here before!

West Haven: suit settled with family of kid who got killed on Interstate 95 after he ran from police following a fistfight. Killed by a truck, as he tried to cross the road. Family gets $400,000. Taxpayers should be furious.

I agree--why would a town have to pay (especially nearly half a million) for the death of a fugitive from justice? Nobody forced him to flee the police: ostensibly he ran by choice. Oh, this lawsuit-happy society!
