Plaintiff was homeless and intoxicated.  Fearing attacks from multiple members of the group, he grabbed a metal pipe to protect himself.  The group ran away.  Almost simultaneously, officers LAWRY and SAMOT appeared and ordered plaintiff to drop the pipe.  Plaintiff did not respond right away due to intoxication.  SAMOT hit plaintiff with baton several times and LAWRY tackled plaintiff.  SAMOT continued to assault with baton and LAWRY did not stop SAMOT.  LAWRY assaulted plaintiff also.  A crowd gathered, becoming angry at the officers for the continued assault. One of the officers put their knee into plaintiff's back, cutting off plaintiff's air supply, effectively suffocating plaintiff.  Sergeant Caron Addesso decided not to arrest plaintiff due to a strong probability of disciplinary issues should plaintiff's injuries be discovered.  Plaintiff walked from the hospital to the office of a lawyer on Queen's Boulevard and explained what happened to him.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.346610.15.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4322832/menninger-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Raffaele, Thomas D. vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-08-21","disposition_date":"2018-01-17","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"Zero Disposition","docket":"13CV04607","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Addesso, Caron","summary":"Plaintiff observed Officers Samot and Lawry using excessive force and assaulting a man while he was subdued on the ground on the street.
