BOSTON — The attorney who represented the family of George Floyd has entered the Stephenson King case.

Ben Crump — the civil rights attorney who represented the family of George Floyd, who was murdered by a Minneapolis police officer who knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes; Breonna Taylor, who was shot and killed during a no-knock police raid on her Louisville apartment; Ahmaud Arbery, the jogger who was chased down and shot dead by three men in Georgia; Trayvon Martin, the unarmed teenager shot and killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer in Florida; and Tyre Nichols, who was beaten to death by five Memphis police officers after a traffic stop — announced on Instagram that he is now representing King's family and is looking for a large settlement from the city of Boston.

King, 39, was shot three times by a Boston police officer on March 11 after allegedly carjacking a woman outside a pizza restaurant, ramming a police cruiser, and attempting to flee in the stolen vehicle. He later died from his injuries.

"Stephenson King Jr. should be alive today," Crump wrote. "This family deserves the full truth, real accountability, and justice that is not delayed or denied."

King had 47 prior criminal charges in Boston alone — breaking and entering, strangulations, firearms offenses — spanning 17 cases over two decades. At the time of the shooting, he was out on bail on four separate felonies and wanted on an outstanding warrant.

Now Crump wants the city to pay.
