She was not told what she was arrested for. The officers pulled her shirt collar, pulled her arms, pressed her body against a concrete wall and handcuffed her in an excessively tight manner. They repeatedly lifted and dropped her, causing her to hit her head on the police vehicle. A defendant supervisor was present at the scene but failed to stop the unlawful arrest. \n\nAt the 90th Precinct, Plaintiff was subjected to search of the intimate parts of her body and was held there for several hours before being released without any criminal charges. She was pressed against a metal bar and handcuffed to a fixed object. NYPD officers failed to notify her mother of the child's detention, forcing the mother to drive from one precinct to another in search of her daughter.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=qFRV5H1Ob09EITSTNEOEAQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Marcial, Nicholas vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2024-06-13","disposition_date":"2025-11-10","payout_amount":45000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"24CV03158","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","summary":"On February 10, 2023, Plaintiff was the lawful front passenger in a vehicle stopped by Defendants Officer Galindo-Sanchez, Officer Cruz, Officer Crichlow, Officer Grullon, Officer Howe, Officer, Jalbrzykowski, Officer Ordonez, Officer Peterson, Officer Scalici, and Defendant Does #1 - 5. One of the defendants ordered all occupants to exit the vehicle. Defendant Crichlow and one other defendant searched Plaintiff at the scene of this stop and determined he was not in possession of any weapons, nor was he alleged to have committed a crime. Despite this, Plaintiff was taken to NYPD's 90th Precinct. Defendants Cruz, Crichlow, Scalici, Howe, and Grullon searched Plaintiff's person and property again on at least two additional occasions. Plaintiff was then taken to an interrogation room by Defendant Jalbrzykowski and Defendant Doe #1 who identified herself as \"Police Officer Rivera.\"  After invoking his miranda rights, Plaintiff was taken to a holding cell where he was again searched. This time, Defendant Galindo-Sanchez reached inside Plaintiff's waistband and located a clear bag containing pulls. Upon this finding, Defendants Galindo-Sanchez, Grullon, Howe, Scalici, and Does # 3-5 threw Plaintiff to the ground. \n\nDefendants Galindo-Sanchez, Grullon, Howe, and Scalici struck Plaintiff repeatedly, twisted his arms, applied overly tight handcuffs, and dragged him into a nearby precinct bathroom while detained witnesses pleaded with Defendants to stop their assault. Upon information and belief, these Defendants intentionally dragged Plaintiff to the bathroom because it is an area where there are no mounted precinct cameras, and footage revealed that NYPD Defendants also deactivated their body-worn cameras at the same time. Once inside the bathroom, at least four NYPD Defendants, including Defendant Galindo-Sanchez, pinned Plaintiff to the ground and forcibly removed his underwear. Defendant Galindo-Sanchez further assaulted Plaintiff by conducting a forcible anal cavity search, no contraband was recovered. Defendants, including Defendant Galindo-Sanchez, fabricated evidence by falsely representing the circumstances of Plaintiff's arrest to prosecutors to suggest cause permitting a lawful seizure; by falsely representing the cause for Defendants' approach of Plaintiff; by providing fabricated evidence to prosecutors; by falsely informing prosecutors that the search of Plaintiff had been lawful; and many other violations. Defendants refused Plaintiff's pleads for medical assistance.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.514296/gov.uscourts.nyed.514296.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/68479178/marcial-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Ochjaroen, Pakij vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-05-15","disposition_date":"2013-12-03","payout_amount":40000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"13CV02459","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Cruz, Ramses","summary":"On March 29, 2011, Plaintiff Pakij Ochjaroen was arrested in Brooklyn, and charges were later dropped relating to the possession of narcotics.
