Hennepin County reaches $1.5 million settlement with family of girl who died in foster care

Six-year-old Kendrea Johnson was found hanging from a jump rope in her foster home four years ago, but her death won't be in vain, attorneys for her family said Wednesday.

Hennepin County reached a $1.5 million settlement with Johnson's grandmother, Mary Broadus, who filed a federal wrongful-death suit claiming that the county failed to address the girl's suicidal ideation.
