New York City’s $5.9 million settlement with the family of Eric Garner, an unarmed black man who died after being put in a white police officer’s chokehold, follows several other million-dollar-plus payouts the city has approved in the last two years to resolve claims of police brutality, wrongful conviction and mistreatment in jail. Among them:
