The individual had earlier called 911 and falsely reported that Plaintiff violated an order of protection. Defendant officer Penaranda responded to the complaint and made no arrest at that time. Upon seeing the individual again, Plaintiff called 911 and asked an officer to come to the scene to ensure a second false complaint was not made against her. Defendant officer Penaranda responded for a second time but refused to file a report of the incident. Plaintiff asked Defendant Penaranda for his badge number, and in response he unlawfully handcuffed, searched, and falsely arrested Plaintiff without probably cause or legal justification. Defendant unlawfully transported Plaintiff to the PSA 5 stationhouse where Plaintiff was placed into a holding cell, where she suffered a severe migraine and began vomiting.\nIn the holding cell, Plaintiff informed Defendant NYPD at the stationhouse that she was vomiting, in severe pain, ill, and therefore requested medical treatment. Defendant officers told her to shut up and refused to obtain medical attention to her. Plaintiff was detained for several hours in the holding cell before she was transported to Central Booking. On December 11, 2012, after making approximately 4 court appearances, all charges against Plaintiff were dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=SNB/mRKD5SLDJSPygpGwEw==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Walker, James vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2015-02-04","disposition_date":"2017-06-27","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"Zero Disposition","docket":"15CV00500","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Penaranda, Stephen","summary":"Defendant officers in police vehicles approached Plaintiff while he was walking with a friend and arrested him, took him to the 73rd Precinct, and charged him with Possession of a Firearm.
