Police who wrongly raided and ransacked an elderly woman’s home looking for a stolen truck and guns with Apple’s Find My have cost the city of Denver $3.76 million in compensation and damages.
As a result, 78-year-old grandmother Ruby Johnson has received a sizable award from the jury in the resulting lawsuit.
The city will be paying the $3.76M award even though the defendant officers — Detective Gary Staab and Sgt. Gregory Buschy — were sued as individuals. Denver police had previously cleared both men of any wrongdoing, but the jury disagreed.
