Undisclosed Settlement Reached in Suit Against White Orange County Cops who Shot Unarmed Black Marine to Death - had a Bible in his hand

Orange County has agreed to settle a lawsuit over the death of an unarmed Black Marine who was shot to death by a white sheriff's deputy after crashing his SUV through a high school gate.

The Orange County Register says federal court documents filed Thursday indicate supervisors have agreed to offer a settlement deal to the family of Sgt. Manuel Loggins Jr. The documents don't indicate the amount of money involved. [MORE]. Loggins was a career Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton. In photo, white Orange County prosecutors at a press conference in September 2012, who said white police acted "reasonably and with sufficient force given the circumstances" and declined to bring criminal charges. More on the "justifiable homicide" of non-whites by cops [HERE] 

It was an early February morning when Loggins drove with his two young daughters to the high school for a workout on the track and bible study. Driving his Chevy SUV he crashed through the school fence. He exited the car while his two daughters remained inside. He then walked onto the athletic field. He returned within minutes and walked to his car.

When the deputy approached Loggins, he saw something in his hand he couldn’t make out. When Sandberg asked Loggins to put his hands up Loggins ignored him, and then tried to drive away. He shifted the vehicle into drive, whereupon the deputy fired three shots at him. The deputy stated he was in fear for the girls' lives, thinking Loggins would flee recklessly. His daughters 9 and 14, were in the backseat. They were not shot.  A toxicology report done on Loggins after his death found no drugs or alcohol in his system. That object that Loggins was holding in his hand turned out not to be a weapon. It was a bible.

His daughters were held (questioned) for approximately 13 hours - at which time their pregnant mother was refused admittance by white cops to comfort the children, who witnessed the killing [MORE].

Brian Dunn, the attorney for the Loggins family, said the evidence doesn't add up.  "Why did he draw a gun in the first place?" Dunn said of Sandberg's actions. "All you had was a man who disobeyed him." [MORE] In photo, face of white jesus found in bird poop on a car windshield in NE Ohio.[MORE]
