The officers ignored exculpatory evidence, including statements from victims indicating that Plaintiff was not the perpetrator, and fabricated false allegations.

Plaintiff was incarcerated for about seven months before being released, and all charges were eventually dismissed on October 3, 2018.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=CFKOl8XSknFr0N4lTSD76g==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Chatten, Robert vs P.O.
