Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, a civil rights activist, paid for an independent autopsy of Adams, Gage said. Gage said in a telephone interview Friday that there were “four million reasons why the case settled,” and it wasn’t just because of the climate in the courts.The lawsuit alleges Adams was talking to a friend in the parking lot, and his mother on the phone, when the shooting occurred. Adams mother, Tamika King,“They had a report of a black man with a gun. That’s all they knew,” Gage said. “They had no knowledge of who the black man was, and they didn’t have knowledge of any convictions at all.
“The individual did not freeze, but with a firearm in his right hand began to run from the officers in between two parked vehicles. Believing that the subject was trying to find cover and ambush the officers, one of the officers fired six rounds at the suspect as the suspect began to turn to look back over his left shoulder,” according to the news release.
