Unsure of what he heard, Plaintiff traveled to his girlfriend’s apartment and found her unresponsive. He immediately called NYPD for assistance. Within fifteen minutes, at least eight NYPD officers were on the scene. Officers asked to see Plaintiff’s ID, and asked him to step into a separate room to discuss the events. Sgt. Roberto More instructed one of the officers to take Plaintiff to the precinct. The officers provided no justification for believing Plaintiff had committed a crime and refused to respond when he asked if his girlfriend was dead. A civilian onlooker confirmed the death of Plaintiff’s girlfriend. Plaintiff was directed into a squad car and transported to the precinct. \nPlaintiff waited with guard for two hours, experiencing excruciating emotional pain after the events, before Detectives Aherne and Gillis arrived and questioned him for half an hour. Plaintiff was released and his ID was returned. \n\nOn or about August 27, 2015, Plaintiff filed a request for public records with NYPD relating to the incident. Although the law required that records be produced within five business days, NYPD failed to do so until November 12, 2015. The produced records were redacted even though Plaintiff’s requests were with the consent of both the deceased’s estate and next-of-kin. The response was also clearly missing records, such as videos and notes that were taken when Plaintiff was detained. On December 10, 2015, Plaintiff filed an appeal regarding the redacted and missing records. NYPD responded on January 29, 2016, though they were required to respond within ten business days. The response stated that they would continue to look for additional documents, but would not provide redacted documents.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.450467/gov.uscourts.nysd.450467.65.0.pdf","type":"complaint"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5378791-Corbett-v-City-Of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4356192/corbett-v-city-of-new-york/"}],"id":"U7T2","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/U7T2"}
