The officers physically restrained Mr. Cooke, grabbing his body and shoulders while violently handcuffing him behind his back. The handcuffs were excessively tight. The officers arrested and processed Mr. Cooke, including various searches and seizures of his person and property, such as fingerprinting, despite a lack of probable cause or reasonable suspicion. The Bronx County District Attorney's Office correctly concluded there was no probable cause or reasonable suspicion to support Mr. Cooke's search, seizure, arrest, detention, or any related criminal prosecution. The officers had approached Mr. Cooke on account of his race; Mr. Cooke is African-American. They did not approach any similarly-situated white individuals.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.554370/gov.uscourts.nysd.554370.25.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/59295914/cooke-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Mcgrier, Likeita vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2018-01-24","disposition_date":"2025-06-03","payout_amount":30000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"150546/2018","court":"Supreme Court - New York","officer_name":"Sganga, Peter A.","summary":"On or about October 21, 2016, at approximately 10:15 am, Plaintiff was operating a vehicle near 464 West 126th Street in the County of New York, when she was stopped by Defendant, Officer Lysette Feliciano and Officer John Doe 1 and was falsely arrested, detained, assaulted and battered.
