One such group of suspects includes those charged with driving under the influence of alcohol whose blood alcohol content was less than .08%. Still, members of this group are habitually detained pending arraignment in violation of the Bail Reform legislation.\n\nOn January 11, 2020, Plaintiff 1 was driving a motor vehicle when he was stopped by PO Ruotolo on suspicion of driving under the influence. Plaintiff 1 agreed to a breathalyzer test, resulting in a .07 ABV reading, less than the .08% threshold for detainment under the Bail Reform legislation. Despite this, PO Ruotolo arrested Plaintiff 1 and put him in a holding cell instead of issuing him a DAT. He was so detained for more than 24 hours before he was released on his own recognizance. Similarly, on February 1, 2020, Plaintiff 2 was driving a motor vehicle when he was pulled over by PO Eltabib on suspicion of driving under the influence. PO Eltabib took Plaintiff 2 to the precinct, where Plaintiff 2 agreed to a breathalyzer test, resulting in a .07 ABV reading. Despite this, PO Eltabib did not issue Plaintiff 2 a DAT; instead, Plaintiff 2 was detained for more than 24 hours before he was released on his own recognizance. Plaintiff 1 and Plaintiff 2 represented a class of similarly situated Plaintiffs who were likewise unlawfully detained by unknown POs.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.454193/gov.uscourts.nyed.454193.1.1.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/18525802/mcqueen-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Tess, Clint vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2018-12-19","disposition_date":"2021-05-03","payout_amount":55000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"18CV06542","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Eltabib, Omar H.","summary":"On or about June 16, 2016, in the vicinity of Surf Avenue and West 5th Street in Brooklyn, NY, plaintiff was driving with two friends. Plaintiff was pulled over by Police Officer Francis Jackson and L.t. Kautter. These officers falsely told plaintiff that he had two suspended licenses and two warrants. Plaintiff was taken behind the police car and handcuffed. Police Officer Eltabib and Police Officer John Sanchez arrived on the scene. Eltabib, without cause, shoved plaintiff, causing him to fall backwards. The other officers failed to intervene. Plaintiff, who has sickle cell anemia, was in severe pain and breathing heavily after the hit and asked to be taken to the hospital 15-20 times but was denied. Plaintiff was taken to the precinct but was not immediately taken to the hospital after telling the officers he suffered from sickle cell anemia. Later, he was eventually taken to Coney Island Hospital. \n\nPlaintiff was hospitalized from June 16 to June 27. For his entire stay in the hospital, plaintiff was handcuffed to the bed with his feet shackled together. During his stay in the hospital, plaintiff was mistreated by the officers. For example, they often made his handcuffs too tight and did not loosen them when he asked, they made him wait up to 45 minutes after he had said he needed to go to the bathroom, and they interfered with his treatment in the hospital. At the hospital, plaintiff was informed that he did not actually have a suspended license, and instead of two warrants, there was only one for open container.  Further, the officers failed to arraign the plaintiff until 11 days after he was taken into custody. After getting out of the hospital, plaintiff was taken to Central Booking, where he was released without seeing a judge.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.425357/gov.uscourts.nyed.425357.15.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/8201631/tess-v-the-city-of-new-york/"}],"payroll":{"salary":"109352","regular":"108510","overtime":"62352","other":"24923","total":"195785"},"id":"G8UZ","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/G8UZ"}
