78-Year-Old Grandma Wins $3.76 Million in Lawsuit After Wrongful SWAT Raid

The jury awarded Ruby Johnson compensatory and punitive damages, highlighting issues with police reliance on 'Find My' app data.

Ruby Johnson, a 78-year-old grandmother, was awarded $3.76 million after her home was wrongfully raided by a SWAT team based on inaccurate 'Find My' app data.
The raid, which occurred in January 2022, involved officers mistakenly targeting Johnson's home for stolen items, including firearms and an iPhone.
The lawsuit emphasized the lack of probable cause and proper investigation in obtaining the search warrant.
Johnson's sense of safety was severely impacted, leading her to move from her home of 43 years.
The case underscores the consequences of police actions without proper verification and the impact of Colorado's 2020 law banning qualified immunity for police.
