flag Seattle to pay $29M to family of 23-year-old Indian grad student killed by police in 2023.

flag Seattle has agreed to a $29 million settlement with the family of Jaahnavi Kandula, a 23-year-old Indian graduate student killed in 2023 when police officer Kevin Dave struck her while driving up to 74 mph in a 25 mph zone during an emergency response. flag The settlement, one of the largest in the city’s history, resolves a civil lawsuit following public outrage over body camera footage showing another officer making disparaging remarks about Kandula’s life value. flag Dave was fired and fined $5,000 for negligent driving, but prosecutors declined to file felony charges. flag The city did not admit fault, and the funds are expected to be covered by insurance. flag The case has fueled national conversations on police accountability, emergency vehicle safety, and treatment of international students.
