A jury has ordered Detroit to pay $25 million, twice as much as the city wanted to, to the former owner of riverfront property seized by the city.
The Wednesday verdict was the latest in a string of examples going back at least to the Poletown case a quarter-century ago in which the city has been told to pay more for land seized through condemnation proceedings than it had anticipated.
The People keep telling them to knock it off, but they just won't listen.
