Christian Feraca, Sergeant Richard Galvez, P.O. Raymond Sanchez, P.O. Ernesto Defreitas, P.O. John Loreto, P.O. Sandeep Thomas, P.O. Michael Napolitano, P.O. Danial Staffa, P.O. Brett Ostrander, and P.O. Colin Russell responded to a report of shots fired in Brooklyn. Defendant P.O. Christian Santos located Tyquarn Graves (deceased son of the Plaintiff) lying face down behind a tree. Santos ordered Mr. Graves not to move. Mr. Graves rose to his knees holding a firearm, observed by Santos. Santos ordered Mr. Graves to \"put it down and stop moving and let me see your hands.\" Mr. Graves then stood up, still holding a gun in his hand. By this time, the other NYPD Defendants were on the scene, most taking cover behind nearby cars. All of the officers were shouting at Mr. Graves to alternatively \"drop the gun... put your hands behind your back... show us your hands... stop moving...\" etc. Mr. Graves did not move, but he also did not drop his gun. The NYPD Defendants then fired a total of sixty-one (61) shots at Mr. Graves, with eleven (10) hitting him. Mr. Graves died of his wounds. The gun in Mr. Grave's possession was not loaded. It was later discovered that the shots fired report was related to a gunshot wound inflicted on another individual by Mr. Graves.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.480664/gov.uscourts.nyed.480664.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/63353553/graves-v-the-city-of-new-york/"}],"discipline":[{"case_no":"2012-8170","disposition_date":"2015-02-13","penalty":"Forfeiture of fifteen (15) vacation days","opened_date":"2013-06-02","charges":[{"desc":"While off-duty respondent failed and neglected to comply with the direction of an on-duty officer","disposition":"Guilty In Part"},{"desc":"While off-duty respondent was discourteous to an on-duty officer","disposition":"Guilty In Part"},{"desc":"Did fail and neglect to provide the Department with his current residential address","disposition":"Pleaded Guilty"}],"documents":[{"name":"Document","url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4419151-nypd-cases-005.html"}]}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22120107-926743_02132015_2015112pdf","date":"2015-02-13T00:00:00.000Z","type":"trial-decision"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24441170-bronx-notified-officers-list-edited_redacted-redacted_redacted","type":"credibility-finding"}],"id":"CMHF","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/CMHF"}
