At the time of his arrest, the plaintiff was visiting his former Guardian, namely Cynthia Everson, who resided at the subject premises. Apart from the plaintiff and Ms. Everson, there were other persons who were also present within the subject premises at the time of the incident, including Michael Everson, Kareem Everson, TameekShelly and Neal Thomas (prosecuted as \"James Thompson\").The incident commenced when the defendant officers knocked quite loudly on the door of the subject premises. The plaintiff's mother answered the door by opening it, and was informed by the defendant officers that they had a warrant for the arrest of a person named Tyree Everson. Tyree Everson is the plaintiff's cousin. The plaintiff's mother informed the officers that Tyree Everson did not live at the subject premises, and was in fact incarcerated at that time. Nevertheless, the defendant officers entered into the apartment, and immediately arrested each male person who was in the subject premises by placing handcuffs on them, including the plaintiff. The defendant officers then proceeded to search the subject premises. The defendant officers did not have a search warrant that permitted the search of the subject premises, and there were no exigent circumstances existing that justified the unlawful search of the subject premises. The defendant officers then declared that they had found illegal weapons and/or narcotics in one of the bedrooms of the subject premises. Upon information and belief, Michael Everson immediately admitted to ownership of the illegal items that were found by the defendant officers. Nevertheless, the plaintiff was arrested by the defendant officers, and transported to the 75th police precinct, where he was processed, or otherwise photographed and fingerprinted. At the 75th police precinct, the plaintiff was also forced to remove all of his clothing, and a humiliating strip search was conducted by the defendant officers at that time. Nothing illegal was found on the person of the plaintiff during said unwarranted strip search. As a result of the plaintiff's above-described false arrest and imprisonment, he has been caused to suffer humiliation, great mental and physical anguish, embarrassment and scorn among those who know him, was prevented from attending to his necessary affairs, and has been otherwise damaged in his character and reputation. Consequently, the plaintiff has been damaged and hereby demands compensatory and punitive damages in an amount to be proven at trial against each of the defendants, individually and severally.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4919100-Waddlington-v-The-City-of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/5640575/waddlington-v-the-city-of-new-york/"}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22119985-921933_05042017_2017002pdf","date":"2017-05-04T00:00:00.000Z","type":"trial-decision"}],"id":"CD7T","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/CD7T"}
