Detective Kenneth Fung falsified documents, misrepresented and falsified evidence and testimony to the Grand Jury and the Court during pre-trial hearings, withheld evidence, and acted in bad faith. Assistant District Attorney Kirstin Krueger was in possession of information, including a license plate number, which would exonerate Plaintiff and show his innocence. The DA's office and District Attorney Daniel Donovan egregiously deviated from proper investigative procedures by prosecuting Plaintiff with a total absence of probable cause and establishing a pattern of grossly failing to train and supervise assistant district attorneys and ignoring law enforcement and prosecutorial improprieties that violate constitutional rights.\n\nPlaintiff was charged with stalking and endangering the welfare of a child, false and baseless charges based on perjurious testimony that resulted in Plaintiff's unlawful imprisonment and confinement from January 26, 2014 through September 30, 2014, when Plaintiff was released as the license plate information ADA Krueger possessed was finally disclosed to Plaintiff's criminal defense attorney. The false charges against Plaintiff were dismissed on February 2, 2015.

Mr. Grant asks the two detectives if they have a warrant to which they falsely respond that they have a warrant for Mr. Grant's arrest. On February 5, 2013 there were no warrants outstanding for Mr. Grant. Upon requesting to see the warrant Mr. Grant was met with threats. In response to the intimidation Mr. Grant opens the door. Detective Charles and Detective Matthew unlawfully enter the plaintiffs apartment. He was handcuffed with excessive and punitive tightness and taken to the 120th Precinct. Lieutenant John Brennan was in the police van and ignored complaints that the handcuffs were too tight, and was aware of the unlawful arrest executed by the detectives. Upon arrival, detective Jeffrey T. Aust falsely told the plaintiff that he violated a protective order with regard to his ex-girlfriend. On February 5, 2013 and the months preceding there was no protective order in effect in plaintiff's ex-girlfriends favor.  Defendant Aust and other JOHN DOES smoked cigarettes near the plaintiff who suffers from asthma.  Upon requesting medical care the plaintiff was simply ignored by the officers. Detective Kenneth Fung failed to check whether there was a valid order of protection in effect protecting plaintiff's ex girlfriend from plaintiff, which ultimately led to the false arrest. Plaintiff's property that was confiscated at the 120th precinct was never returned.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.426643/gov.uscourts.nysd.426643.37.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13143607/grant-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Rhooms, Shane vs Enright, Michael, et al.","start_date":"2013-10-30","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"13CV05006","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Fung, Kenneth","summary":"On September 6, 2010, an unidentified gunman shot at NYPD Officers Seminara, Henderson, and Ortlieb. Trevor Perez was present at the shooting and was unlawfully handcuffed and imprisoned shortly thereafter despite not being involved in the shooting. NYPD Detective Freed and an unidentified NYPD Officer coerced a confession from Perez by forcing him to sign a dictated statement on a photograph of Plaintiff identifying Plaintiff as the gunman. Detective Freed then colluded with Officer Seminara to have Seminara identify Plaintiff as the gunman given the illegality involved in procuring Perez's confession. Plaintiff voluntarily went to the 67th precinct where he was falsely imprisoned and interrogated by Detective Freed. Despite ample evidence that Plaintiff was not present at the location of the shooting, Detective Freed orchestrated a sham lineup and conspired with Officers Ortlieb, Henderson, and Seminara to have them maliciously identify Plaintiff as the gunman. The defendants then maliciously initiated a prosecution based on false statements and manufactured evidence. All false charges were dismissed on December 21, 2010.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4919915-Rhooms-v-Enright-et-al"},{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.346721/gov.uscourts.nyed.346721.41.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/6153518/rhooms-v-enright/"}],"id":"KSYK","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/KSYK"}
