The officers accused Hudson of trespassing in a building he had not entered, pointed their firearms at him, struck him, and handcuffed him in a manner that caused unnecessary pain. Hudson did not resist arrest and was searched illegally without any cause. He was transported to the 73rd precinct, where he was searched again, and no illegal contraband was found.\n\nHudson was detained until December 28, 2019, and later transported to Central Booking in Kings County, where he was held under inhumane conditions, including being denied food and water and subjected to unsanitary and extreme conditions. He was released on December 29, 2019, after being brought before a judge and forced to return to court to face false criminal charges. Hudson’s arrest and imprisonment, as well as the physical contact and treatment by the officers, were without just cause and resulted in both physical and emotional harm.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=Z_PLUS_iDRa1athS7vgBOFD5UgQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Mckoy, Natasha vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2019-12-16","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"523421/2019","court":"Supreme Court - Kings","officer_name":"Furegno, Christopher M.","summary":"On April 10, 2018, at 6:00 am, Plaintiff Natasha Mckoy was lawfully sleeping inside of her apartment. Plaintiff's 18-year-old son was awake and getting dressed to start his day, and Plaintiff's girlfriend was awake and getting ready for work when Plaintiff was awoken from her sleep by the individually named defendants (POLICE OFFICER CHRISTOPHER FUREGNO, Tax No. 934891, POLICE OFFICER GEORGE ALLEN, Tax No. 944517, DETECTIVE JOSEPH FERNANDEZ, Shield No. 1815, SERGEANT AFZAL ALI, Tax No. 936116, DETECTIVE TATMENG VONG, Tax No. 951405, and DETECTIVE JAMES SCHUESSLER, Shield No. 28718, and POLICE OFFICERS JOHN DOES #1-10 (names and number of whom are unknown at present). Defendants unlawfully entered the apartment screaming profanities and pointing their guns at the heads of everyone in the apartment, including Plaintiff. Defendants obtained a search warrant to search Plaintiff’s apartment because they were trying to locate and arrest an individual named William Kleinfeldt and they incorrectly believed he lived in Plaintiff’s apartment. \n\nMost of the officers that raided the apartment were male and Plaintiff was forced to sit in her underwear in front of the male officers for approximately ten minutes, and was then strip searched by the officers, which was extremely embarrassing and emotionally traumatic for Plaintiff. At no time relevant herein did Plaintiff commit a crime or violate the law in any manner, and defendants did not possess any objective facts that suggested to them that Plaintiff committed a crime or violated the law in any manner. Nevertheless, after Plaintiff got dressed, defendants handcuffed and falsely arrested Plaintiff. Defendants placed Plaintiff in an NYPD police vehicle and transported her against her will to the 73rd Precinct where she was unlawfully detained in a filthy holding cell for approximately 5 hours. Plaintiff was then issued a criminal court summons, falsely charging her with Unlawful Possession of Marijuana (PL 221.05). Plaintiff appeared in Kings County Criminal Court to address the false allegations against her on June 27, 2018, and then had to return to court again on July 25, 2018, at which time the Court dismissed and sealed the charge brought against her in its entirety and the criminal case terminated in her favor.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=2tK_PLUS_xqNlZdUkLCjRzPTwrg==","type":"complaint"}]}],"discipline":[{"disposition_date":"2023-04-21","case_no":"2022-24574","penalty":"Training","recommendation":"Training","allegations":[{"desc":"Wrongfully searched an individual known to the Department."}]},{"case_no":"2011-6444","disposition_date":"2014-10-10","penalty":"The Charges and Specifications have been dismissed","opened_date":"2012-09-25","charges":[{"desc":"Obtained insurance for his personal vehicles using an address in orange county, ny, when in fact, he resided in Kings County, ny","disposition":"Dismissed"},{"desc":"Failed and neglected to notify the Department of his change of residence","disposition":"Dismissed"}],"documents":[{"name":"Document","url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4419292-nypd-cases-328.html"}]}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24441170-bronx-notified-officers-list-edited_redacted-redacted_redacted","type":"credibility-finding"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21023370-furegno-4ada37b9215433b42abfb13eae2385a1d8da372c","type":"brady-giglio"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22085323-seh_934891","type":"employment-history"}],"payroll":{"salary":"119980","regular":"115753","overtime":"65900","other":"23740","total":"205393"},"id":"83T9","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/83T9"}
