• municipality may be liable if official’s actions were carried out with “supervisory encouragement, condo-nation, or even acquiescence”
• “Even if we were to credit complaints of police brutality as well as complaints of other shootings, we cannot see that there is a pattern of police violence so striking as to allow an inference of supervisory encouragement, condonation, or even acquiescence.” citations omitted

• “gross negligence amounting to deliberate indifference”
