Daniel Hull, Lt. Leo James, PO John Reiber, Det. Francisco Leon, Det. Frank Monge, and POs John and Jane Does without justification. POs unlawfully searched Plaintiff and discovered no contraband but nevertheless arrested Plaintiff with excessive force. Plaintiff was taken to the 40th Precinct where he was questioned regarding an alleged robbery. While there POs also made false statements to the District Attorney that they observed Plaintiff committing crimes. That afternoon, POs subjected Plaintiff to a photo lineup where he was the only member wearing a design that matched the victim's description. As a result of POs' unduly suggestive procedure the victim falsely confirmed Plaintiff as the perpetrator and Plaintiff was sentenced to 11 years in prison. While in prison Plaintiff repeatedly requested medical treatment but was denied. On June 28, 2022 an appellate court ordered a re-trial and Plaintiff was acquitted of all charges on November 6, 2023. Plaintiff suffered deprivation of liberty, extreme emotional distress, mental anguish, fear, pain, bodily injury, embarrassment, humiliation, reputational damage, and loss of income as a result of this incident.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=UBHDhb/g/UIjvJZBwkicKw==","type":"complaint"}]}],"image":"https://www.50-a.org/images/officer/E2WK-james-leo.jpg","socials":[{"url":"https://twitter.com/JamesMLeo1","type":"twitter"}],"id":"E2WK","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/E2WK"}
