Defendant NYPD Officers knocked on her door, and when she answered, they arrested her and handcuffed her on allegations of violating an order of protection. Officers were sent there by their supervisor, defendant NYPD Detective Justin Solomon, who was responding to a complaint from plaintiff's ex-girlfriend. Defendant Solomon had failed to investigate this complaint, and if he had he would have learned that there was no such order of protection. Plaintiff was taken to a nearby precinct, where she was searched and detained in handcuffs. When she finally spoke to defendant Solomon, he realized that he was mistaken, that there was no valid order of protection, and he ordered plaintiff released.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=WuoAzZBD1/peQuQCx4nQyA==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Thompson, Mark Broaster vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2022-11-01","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"151831/2022","court":"Supreme Court - Richmond","summary":"On October 7, 2019, Plaintiff was lawfully present inside the 121st Precinct when he was arrested and handcuffed by defendant officers with no probable cause or legal justification. Prior to October 7, 2019, Plaintiff was contacted repeatedly by defendant officers who told Plaintiff to come to the precinct to speak with them. Plaintiff was not told what they wanted to speak with him about, but went to the precinct because he knew he did not commit a crime or violate the law in any way. Upon arriving, Plaintiff was immediately handcuffed and arrested and was subjected to interrogation and searches for many hours. Defendant officers falsely alleged that on July 9, 2019, Plaintiff grabbed defendant officer Tracey Rooney's shoulder, causing them to fall on the ground, and prevented another defendant officer from arresting them by running away. Defendant Officer Rooney fabricated these allegations against Plaintiff to support the criminal charges brought against him. Defendant Officer Rooney's version of events changed dramatically between July 9, 2019 and October 7, 2019. The allegations against Plaintiff contained in the Criminal Court Complaint were fabricated and Defendant Officer Rooney altered her previous version of events to justify how she was injured to her superiors at NYPD. All charges brought against Plaintiff were dismissed and sealed on October 14, 2020.","documents":[{"url":"https://web.archive.org/web/20240626173350/https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=SC_PLUS__PLUS_VVolx08uzj5Jj_PLUS_k5oQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Ojo, Joseph, et al. vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2014-09-30","disposition_date":"2017-09-29","payout_amount":200000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"14CV05526","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Solomon, Justin","summary":"On June 22, 2013, NYPD Officers Justin Solomon, Andrew Babajko, and Sergeant Jason Deonarinesingh assaulted Joseph Ojo and  Anthony Olaniyi.
