The sister of Kevin Robert Niedzialek, 34, will receive only $1.5 million of the $7.5 million award imposed against Riverside County.
A federal jury in Riverside on Friday, April 7, awarded $7.5 million to the sister of a man who died while being detained by Riverside County sheriff’s deputies in Temecula in 2019. But jurors also found that Kevin Robert Niedzialek, 34, a methamphetamine addict, was 80% at fault for his own death.
The trial, which began on March 28 before U.S. District Judge Jesus G. Bernal, was filed in federal court because the lawsuit alleged violations of Niedzialek’s constitutional rights. “Further … the jury correctly found under the evidence and the law that the officers’ negligent conduct was a cause of death. That’s why the plaintiff won the trial and that’s why the county is responsible for $1.5 million,” Galipo wrote in a text message. “Because the jury did not find a constitutional violation, they never decided whether or not Bianco should be held personally responsible.”
