In January 2023, the City Council of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, approved settlement payments totaling $166,500 to nine women who accused former Oklahoma City Police Officer Daniel Holtzclaw of sexual assault. According to the settlement terms, each woman would receive $18,500. A federal judge signed off on the settlements, which were reached following mediation mandated by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. Holtzclaw was accused of assaulting thirteen Black women and girls between 2013 and 2014 while on duty and off as a police officer. In 2015, a jury in a separate criminal case convicted him of multiple sexual offenses involving eight victims, and he was sentenced to 263 years in prison. The City had previously fought lawsuits that blamed police practices for his actions. In 2019, the City agreed to a $25,000 settlement to resolve a separate lawsuit accusing Holtzclaw of excessive force. |
