To put things in perspective, the city budget is $4 billion. Without this one-time wrongful conviction that's about a third of a percent. Not saying there isn't work to do but numbers need context.

What do you think about the context the bar graph of each city department’s payout/settlement gives?

I thing that really highlights the issue, each year BPD accounts for a majority of payouts, 2/3 years it’s the vast majority of the total city’s payout/settlement.
