There is a pattern of high profile wrongful death case settlements being announced in close proximity to a criminal trial involving the death. It happened in the death of Trayvon Martin just a couple of months before the George Zimmerman trial, and in the death of Freddie Gray as pre-trial proceedings against police officers were starting. Both criminal cases ended in not guilty verdicts (Zimmerman, Baltimore Police).
