Defendants became aware of the plaintiff watching them and took issue with it.  As the plaintiff began to walk up the stairs to exit the subway station, passing the defendants, Defendant Goldstein approached plaintiff and asked for his identification. Then, without cause, Defendant Goldstein maliciously shoved the plaintiff up the stairs of the station and handcuffed him while he was on the ground. Both defendants lifted the plaintiff from the ground by the handcuffs. Detective Goldstein asked the plaintiff if he had any drugs and then conducted an overly invasive search, lifting his shirt and exposing his bare torso. The plaintiff was arrested and Defendant Holman knowingly swore to false charges. The charges were resolved when the plaintiff accepted an adjournment in contemplation of dismissal.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.350843/gov.uscourts.nyed.350843.11.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13050625/behncke-v-city-of-new-york/"}],"id":"LPLH","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/LPLH"}
