He was present in the basement of his home, when defendant officers came into his home without a warrant. Police officers arrested him and subjected him to unlawful pat-down. Plaintiff was tightly restrained with metal handcuffs. Nevertheless, he has not committed any crime or any unlawful act. While plaintiff was in the precinct, police officers provided the district attorney with the false information that plaintiff was engaged in burglary and murder in the 2nd degree.  While in custody, plaintiff received a permanent scar on his face after he was slashed by another inmate. Finally, his conviction was overturned due to process violations, and eventually all charges against plaintiff were dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=xikC/Ee0gd0xeNRfUtTW4A==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Douglas, Julian and Green, Sahel vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2019-05-31","disposition_date":"2021-04-20","payout_amount":2000000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"709207/2019","court":"Supreme Court - Queens","officer_name":"Brown, Barry","summary":"On March 31, 2015, two people acting in concert killed a woman at her Jamaica, Queens home.  On April 24, 2015, Plaintiff Douglas was charged with the woman's murder, and later, on October 6, 2015, Plaintiff Green was similarly charged with the woman's murder.  The plaintiffs spent a combined 5.5 years incarcerated on Rikers Island.  Meanwhile, the NYPD possessed exculpatory evidence for years.  The plaintiffs were released on March 9, 2018.  The exculpatory evidence showed that the plaintiffs were not at the victim's home when the murder occurred.  \n\nMoreover, the key evidence against the plaintiffs was the result of NYPD coercion.  In particular, Detective Donnell Myers, Detective Stephen Lalchan, and Sergeant Diego Vivar, along with Detectives Daniel Gallagher, Keith Erhart, Anthony Faranda, and Patrick Roach, coerced incriminating testimony against the plaintiffs out of a witness, telling the witness that fabricating evidence against the plaintiffs would allow the witness to keep custody of her daughter.  Sometime before June 14, 2017, the witness recanted her statements, saying that, in reality, she had no reason to think that Plaintiffs Douglas and Green murdered the victim.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=ivj5Gb5ngoTbaVE8F97CRQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Johnson, Brenda and Johnson, Stephen vs Det.

They heard a loud banging on the front door and moved to determine the cause. Before they could reach the front door, it was broken open and ten (10) unidentified officers entered. The defendants were dressed in \"military-combat-like outfits and several were brandishing rifles. The first through the door had a large shield.  The plaintiffs complied with \"scream(s)\" to get down on the floor. Plaintiff Stephen Johnson was handcuffed. The unidentified officers then split up to search the residence (half going upstairs, the other downstairs). Detectives Jason Barr and Rebecca Asman  entered the residence and informed the plaintiffs that they had a tip regarding weapons and stolen property in the home. The plaintiffs were taken outside and made to stand on their lawn in full view of the neighbors for 20 minutes.  Detective Barry Brown also participated in the search. The search uncovered no contraband. The plaintiffs were never informed of a search warrant nor shown one.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.355501/gov.uscourts.nyed.355501.19.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13139148/johnson-v-barr/"},{"officer_name":"Brown, Barry","disposition":"Administrative Closing","start_date":"2010-10-25","disposition_date":"2017-06-16","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","docket":"308677/2010","name":"Williams, James and Charles, Kadeem vs City of New York, et al.","payout_amount":0},{"officer_name":"Brown, Barry","disposition":"Settlement","start_date":"2008-07-24","disposition_date":"2014-07-30","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","docket":"08CV02666","name":"Routier, Darnell vs O'hara, Sergeant, et al.","payout_amount":7000,"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4918745-Routier-v-O-Hara-et-al"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4918746-Routier-v-O-Hara-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/5589051/routier-v-ohara/"}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24441170-bronx-notified-officers-list-edited_redacted-redacted_redacted","type":"credibility-finding"}],"news":[{"url":"https://www.thecity.nyc/2020/10/15/21518817/a-young-prisoners-dilemma-freedom-or-a-risky-shot-at-his-clearing-name","title":"A Young Prisoner's Dilemma: Freedom or a Risky Shot at Clearing His Name","source":"The City","date":"2020-10-15"}],"id":"4VX9","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/4VX9"}
