The City of Scottsdale has agreed to pay $200,000 to a woman falsely accused of a hit-and-run crash by officers who overlooked clear video evidence of her innocence.

The case got national attention after an ABC15 investigation showed how officers belittled Garcia, repeatedly called her a liar, and refused to contact a lawyer at the scene.
