Today, the Star Tribune's Eric Roper reports that the Minneapolis City Council has agreed to settle with Rasmusson for $392,000, pushing her total haul to over $1 million.
So for the mental and emotional anguish associated with having her personal Driver and Vehicle Services database information unlawfully accessed many hundreds of times, Rasmusson will receive at least $1,057,000 in settlements. The Pioneer Press reportedlast month that she still has a pending lawsuit against the state of Minnesota, so that total will probably still grow.
