For almost 24 hours,  Plaintiff and her husband were subjected to multiple interrogations, searches of their home by three separate squads, and forensic interrogations. Defendants falsely concluded that the child died of Shaken Baby Syndrome and charged both Plaintiff and her husband with Manslaughter in the First Degree and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.  Plaintiff's husband was convicted of reckless manslaughter and the charges against her were dismissed. Plaintiff alleges she was prosecuted to put pressure on her husband to plead guilty.  As a result, Plaintiff, who gave birth to another child while being incarcerated, is still not allowed custody of her.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.367939/gov.uscourts.nyed.367939.36.0.pdf","type":"complaint"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4920554-Li-v-City-of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/5715804/li-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Picou, Brett vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-09-26","disposition_date":"2014-08-05","payout_amount":2501,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"13CV05327","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Phelan, John","summary":"On or about February 15, 2012, Defendant Smith reported to Defendant Pough that he had overheard that Plaintiff had inappropriately touched several students at P.S. 52. In fact, Defendant Smith had not overheard such a statement and his false allegation was likely driven by animus. Defendant Smith coerced students into making false allegations against Plaintiff through a group discussion and effectively convinced 9 students to come forward with false statements. This group discussion violated rules and regulations of defendant NYPD. As a result of this, Plaintiff was placed under arrest and restrained tightly with handcuffs without a warrant or probable cause on February 23, 2012. The false charges assembled against Plaintiff in front of the grand jury returned no true bill.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.347257/gov.uscourts.nyed.347257.10.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13050155/picou-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"officer_name":"Phelan, John","disposition":"Zero Disposition","start_date":"2011-03-01","disposition_date":"2014-07-30","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","docket":"11CV00028","name":"Boda, Peter vs Detective Phelan, John, et al.","payout_amount":0,"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/5655060/boda-v-detective-john-phelan/"},{"name":"Allah v.
