Bruce Jones, the late 50-year-old’s sibling, clarified that there is still more work to be done, including that the battle for justice is not finished. “The settlement makes me feel a little bit better, but until I can have a chance to have these cops prosecuted, I am still going to be pushing for justice,” he said.
