Plaintiff was forcibly seized, assaulted, and battered. Defendant Officers Lester and Cruz arrested Plaintiff and Plaintiff was held in custody at the Precinct and eventually at Riker's Island Correctional Facility. On October 28, 2018, the Defendant Officers caused a criminal prosecution of Plaintiff to be initiated, charging Plaintiff with crimes of which they were innocent. In support of the criminal prosecution, Defendant Officer Lester signed a Criminal Court Complaint swearing allegations against Plaintiff that were untrue, and filed paperwork containing untrue allegations. The paperwork contained false allegations that Plaintiff pushed, slapped, and bit Officer Lester, and that Plaintiff kicked and physically fought with the officers. Defendant Officers repeated these false allegations during the testimony before a Grand Jury. Plaintiff's bail was set at a prohibitively high level and they were incarcerated at Riker's Island for several days. Plaintiff was prosecuted for more than two years. On December 14, 2020, all criminal charges were dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://web.archive.org/web/20240617233238/https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=w2fYULDNR6E3SBBimb3YtQ==","type":"complaint"}]}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21022109-cruz-1bce7d4c4ea02f659f47e9773ec713ea45fbf706","type":"brady-giglio"}],"payroll":{"salary":"142202","regular":"137445","overtime":"24587","other":"17489","total":"179522"},"id":"HHKH","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/HHKH"}
