Take on the Michael Brown lawsuit

Saw a tweet today that that the family of Michael Brown was suing the city of Ferguson and I had to look four times to make sure I read it right. The fact the family was suing wasn't surprising, what was surprising was that they were seeking for $75,000 in damages. Forget what you think of the case, I have to think that the price of a life is worth more than the cost of a Range Rover. I'm not saying a family should go gold digging but $75k is laughable

    It could be that there is a $75K cap on tort damages one can seek against a government entity in Missouri. Just a thought.

    Does this mean they will turn around and sue again in civil court?? Or otherwise sue the individual cops??
