The city of Chicago is expected to pay $2.9m to Anjanette Young, a Black woman whom police officers handcuffed while she was naked when they mistakenly executed a search warrant in the wrong home in 2019.
During the botched raid in February 2019, Young waited naked, handcuffed and terrified, insisting at least 42 times that the police had targeted the wrong apartment.
Young was inside her apartment, changing out of her work clothes, when police broke through her door with a battering ram. Body camera footage shows a group of screaming male officers crowding into the apartment where Young stood naked.
