Despite the continuing absence of probable cause for his arrest, Plaintiff was transported to NYPD precinct. Once at the state, Plaintiff was subjected to a strip search which failed to yield any contraband.  While in defendants’ custody, defendant Hinton, with the help and complicity of the other defendants, completed arrest paperwork and executed a sworn statement in which he falsely claimed that, at about 6:00 pm on the evening of September 9, 2016, he was in a patrol car with defendant Brennan when they observed plaintiff recklessly driving a dirt bike on a public roadway and that they saw plaintiff crash the bike into another vehicle. Hinton's allegations concerning Plaintiff's operation of the dirt bike were false. \n\nPlaintiff was also charged with criminal possession of a weapon, based on Defendant Valad's statements to the District Attorney's Office that he witnessed Plaintiff discard an item in a garbage can just prior to his arrest. Defendants stated they later found a gun in that trashcan. However, Plaintiff had neither possessed the gun nor placed any item in the garbage can. Plaintiff was sentenced to seven years in prison, but the conviction was overturned on appeal. On or about August 15, 2022, Plaintiff was released from custody with all charges dismissed. Plaintiff spent more than four years in prison as a result of this prosecution and conviction.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.617931/gov.uscourts.nysd.617931.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/68361323/patterson-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Bottomley, Emma vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2021-09-14","disposition_date":"2023-01-23","payout_amount":10000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"21CV08449","court":"U.S. District Court - Southern District NY","summary":"On September 19, 2020 at 45th street and Broadway, Plaintiff was attending a non-violent ICE protest.

At the time of the entry, plaintiff was in her bedroom in her pajamas mourning the death of her teenage niece who had been killed in a shooting in the Bronx.  The defendants informed plaintiff that she was under arrest for illegally evicting her husband, Darnell Dover.  Plaintiff's husband was actually home that night and informed officers that he had not been illegally evicted by his wife.  Nevertheless, the defendants insisted on arresting the plaintiff.  When plaintiff asked the defendants if she could come to the precinct during daytime hours the following day, one of the defendants forcefully grabbed the plaintiff, spun her around, pinned her up against the wall and pulled her arms up toward her shoulders, injuring her right rotator cuff.  Several of the other defendants joined in, forcefully pinning plaintiff against the wall and using excessive and unnecessary force, handcuffed the plaintiff behind her back.  The defendants escorted plaintiff out of her apartment in her pajamas to the 32nd Precinct, where she was searched and held in jail for several hours.  The next day at approximately 3 PM, plaintiff was falsely charged with Unlawful Eviction and maliciously prosecuted based on false information provided by the defendants to the NY County DA's Office.  Plaintiff's case was dismissed on July 9, 2018 and sealed on motion by the NY County DA's Office.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.522114/gov.uscourts.nysd.522114.55.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/16139056/baker-v-city-of-new-york/"}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22059974-hinton-956739-2020-01-23_redacted","type":"cpi"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21075316-gilgio_hinton","type":"brady-giglio"}],"image":"https://www.50-a.org/images/officer/WMPV-brian-hinton.jpg","payroll":{"salary":"109352","regular":"108510","overtime":"31805","other":"20519","total":"160834"},"news":[{"url":"https://nypost.com/2019/04/08/nypd-officer-wipes-out-on-dirt-bike-in-harlem/","title":"NYPD officer wipes out on dirt bike in Harlem","source":"New York Post","date":"2019-04-08"}],"id":"WMPV","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/WMPV"}
