Defendants claimed that the stop and search resulted from one of the plaintiff's friends displaying a BB gun. But Defendants did not learn of the presence of the BB gun until the friend mentioned it was in his bag. The gun was in that bag the entire time the Plaintiff and his friends were at the bus stop. Moreover, Plaintiff did not know about the BB gun.  Nevertheless, Plaintiff and his friends were arrested and each charged with two offenses: possession of a firearm and possession of an imitation pistol. In a complaint, Defendant Sepulveda swore that the BB gun had been displayed and thereby knowingly made a false and perjured statment. On July 31, 2014, both charges against Plantiff were withdrawn, and the criminal proceeding against Plaintiff was dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.362526/gov.uscourts.nyed.362526.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13140033/collins-v-sepulveda/"}],"payroll":{"salary":"141943","regular":"137603","overtime":"32502","other":"27776","total":"197882"},"id":"AQ4F","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/AQ4F"}
