Kalief Browder's Family Was About To Settle His Lawsuit

... a role which they all agreed his sister, Nicole, would take on — plus, they had to hire new attorney. “We get an attorney, we go to court. A month later, the court says, there is a problem,” Akeem says. Venida Browder’s estranged husband, who she kicked out of the house years earlier but never divorced, showed up to court, Akeem says, claiming to have a stake in the settlement. “He comes to the court. Court perceives him to be a husband. Even though he hasn’t been around for years. Turns into months of playing games,” Akeem said. A spokesperson for the city’s law department said, “The court thought it prudent to put these proceedings on hold to allow time for the resolution of estate issues arising from the passing of Ms. Browder. The City stands ready to resume settlement discussions as soon as it is determined what parties would be entitled to share in the proceeds from a settlement.”.

New Docuseries Highlights How The System Failed Kalief Browder

... Browder was arrested in 2010 for allegedly stealing a backpack. He was unable to make bail and detained at Rikers Island for three years before the charges were dropped and Browder was freed. Following his release in 2013, Browder’s story started circulating in the media, which documented the abuse he faced in jail. Two years later, Browder killed himself, leaving his family to carry forward with  his quest for justice. Furst said his team spent about five or six months filming interviews and building “a very personal relationship” with the Browder family. They also uncovered surveillance footage from Rikers and combed through hours of outtakes from Browder’s interview with Nightline. Those candid on-camera moments, which included Browder’s “somewhat coy and awkward responses,” helped to accurately represent his character, Furst said. “We had to find every single second that had ever been recorded or that existed that was a testimony or was a photograph or was a memory of Kalief that we could because our protagonist, our lead character, is no longer with us,” Furst said. While the show focuses on Browder, it paints a grim picture of the system at ...

Rounding out the main cast are Monica Barbaro (Un Real) as assistant state's attorney Anna Valdez, Joelle Carter (Justified) as investigator Laura Nagel, and Jon Seda, moving over from Chicago P. D., as chief investigator Antonio Dawson. Sunday's episode, in which a police officer is accused of being responsible for a suspect's death, ...

Kalief Browder's Sister Remembers Him As 'normal Kid,' But Rikers Changed That

... 22-year-old Kalief, unable to move on from his torturous  three-year ordeal at Rikers Island, took his own life , but his sister’s memories of him are as vivid as ever. Nicole, who is featured in Spike TV’s upcoming docuseries “Time: The Kalief Browder Story,” opened up to The Huffington Post about the relationship she and her late brother shared before he was sent to jail. While Kalief, who was never actually convicted of the crime that would force him into a cell on Rikers, became emblematic of the United States’ flawed criminal justice system, to Nicole, he was just a normal kid from the Bronx. Her bond with her brother ― who was adopted into the Browder family, just like she was ― was a typical love-hate sibling relationship. “He was the youngest, so we would pick on him,” Nicole said. But being the youngest had its perks too, she recalled. “I remember he was really picky about his food ...
