Plaintiff lives with her daughter and both were awoken when said Defendant Officers rushed through her front door. After entering the apartment, Plaintiff and her daughter were not free to leave or disregard any questions. Plaintiff was intentionally struck and knocked into her refrigerator; one Defendant Officer grabbed Plaintiff by the neck and threw her to the floor; another Defendant Officer trampled Plaintiff and stepped on her breast. Plaintiff urinated on herself. Defendants then grabbed and twisted Plaintiff's arms and placed excessively tight handcuffs on her wrist. Defendant Officers then rushed at Plaintiff's daughter with their firearms drawn, yanked her off her bed and onto the floor, and wrenched her arms behind her black placing excessively tight handcuffs on her wrist as well. While Plaintiff and her daughter lay in their nightclothes and underwear on the floor, Defendant Officers walked around the apartment and eventually allowed Plaintiff and her daughter to sit in their living room. Defendant Officers continuously ignored Plaintiff and her daughter's concerns, questions, and complaints about her injuries. After more complaints of wanting to be dressed, one female Defendant officer finally allowed them to take turns and get dressed. Defendant Officers did not have any reasonable basis to use any degree of force. Plaintiff received medical treatment at a hospital. Those Defendant Officers who did not touch Plaintiff witnessed these acts of force and failed to intervene (though this is not an official cause of action). The search of the apartment did not result in any finding of controlled substances, contraband, or weapons. Defendant Officers Hillery, Fago, Rivera, Fried, Brooks, Hernandez, Meigs, Sanches, and Sposito initiated and falsely and maliciously told the Richmond County DA's office that Plaintiff and her daughter committed various crimes by stating, among other things, that they were in possession of an amount of marijuana. RCDA declined to prosecute Plaintiff's daughter and she was released from Central Booking without any charges filed against her, while Plaintiff was arraigned. Defendant Officer Hillery and Fago obtained an unlawful search warrant by recklessly, deliberately, and inadequately conducting an investigation, and/or purposely misrepresenting facts to a court official. As a result of Plaintiff's arraignment and charges filed against her, she was wrongfully terminated from her place of employment. Defendant officers continuously claimed falsely that Plaintiff was smoking marijuana on the date of her arrest.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.340003.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4919786-Matthews-v-City-of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4322461/matthews-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"officer_name":"Banghart, Martin A.","disposition":"Settlement","start_date":"2012-08-28","disposition_date":"2013-06-07","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","docket":"12CV03978","name":"Seton, Carl, et Al vs City of New York, et al.","payout_amount":135000,"summary":"Officers falsely arrested Plaintiff and brought him to the 120th precinct after they saw him retrieve an oxycodone pill from his car.
