While at a friend's home, about four police officers arrived in an SUV, handcuffed the plaintiff, and brought him to the 105th precinct. After several hours, Detectives Lopez and Blake from the 103rd precinct arrived and questioned the plaintiff about a robbery and assault that had occurred a week earlier. Despite the plaintiff denying involvement and the evidence being largely speculative, he was charged with first-degree assault, first-degree robbery, and second-degree robbery—serious felonies with lengthy sentences. Additionally, a wanted poster of the plaintiff was publicly posted on the precinct's Facebook page. Defendant Sergeant George Duffy approved the investigation, arrest, and prosecution. The plaintiff was ultimately brought to Central Booking, arraigned, and sent to Riker's Island. All charges were dismissed on November 22, 2019, and the plaintiff was released after 38 days of incarceration.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=aEgytykysTQSmd/UAsXgOQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Howell, Quentin vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-10-10","disposition_date":"2014-11-12","payout_amount":5000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"14CV00579","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Duffy, George L.","summary":"On August 26, 2010, POs Raul Muniz, Michael Buglione, George Duffy, and John and Jane Doe 1-5 (the names John and Jane Doe are fictitious, as the true names of these officers were unknown at the time of the complaint), without permission or a validly executed search warrant, entered Plaintiff’s residential building, allegedly looking for a weapon.
