Alan C. Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Camden, NJ Agrees to Pay $3.5M to Victims of Police Corruption The City of Camden has agreed to pay $3.5 million in damages to 88 people whose convictions were overturned because of widespread corruption in the Camden Police Department. The settlement stems from a series of lawsuits filed against Camden Police in federal district court and state superior court over the last two years, after five officers were charged with a number of federal civil rights violations from conduct involving evidence planting, fabrication of reports and evidence, and perjury. Of course, we know where the $3.5M is coming from.
