Quintrell T. Brannon taser-associated death settled out-of-court

An out-of-court settlement has been made in a lawsuit over the June 8, 2008, death of Quintrell T. Brannon, 25, at the Knox County Jail. He died at the jail less than an hour after Knox County Sheriff's deputies and Vincennes Police Department officers used a Taser to apply incredibly painful and potentially dangerous electric shocks to his person during an arrest. Pepper spray and reportedly-abusive physical restraint were also used. Terms of the settlement were not released.
