Rice Family Attorney: No Closure In Settlement

Written by

The family of Tamir Rice, the 12 year-old Cleveland boy shot and killed by police in a Cleveland park, is still feeling deep emotions after the announcement that they'll receive a $6 million settlement from the city of Cleveland.

Subodh Chandra is an attorney for the Rice family. He says the money won't bring closure.

"When it happens under circumstances as horrifying as this, there is simply no closure, there is no sense of justice," Chandra tells WAKR's Jasen Sokol, "and this doesn't necessarily help that."

Chandra says that he's met with the family in recent days.

"It's painful, it's an incredibly painful thing to endure," Chandra says, "there are a lot of tears and the tears don't ever seem to stop."
