Adam Toledo's family challenges increase in disability payments to ex-officer who killed 13-year-old

CHICAGO (WLS) -- The family of Adam Toledo is challenging a court order that allows more benefits for a former officer involved in the teen's shooting.

In July, a Cook County judge ordered an increase in the monthly disability benefit payments to former Chicago Police Officer Eric Stillman.

Stillman shot and killed the 13-year-old during a chase in 2021. He was not charged but it was recommended he be fired.

Stillman was diagnosed with PTSD, and the pension board determined he should get 50% of his salary. However, a judge determined it should be 75%.

There will be a hearing next week on the motion to stop the benefit payment increase.
