Conclusion Meanings:
'Exonerated': or 'Within NYPD Guidelines' - The conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
'SRAD Closure': Strategic Resource Allocation Determination - due to citywide budget cuts, CCRB is no longer able to fully investigate certain cases within its jurisdiction and suspended investigating some types of complaints.
'Substantiated': The misconduct occurred and it violated the rules. The NYPD has discretion over what, if any, discipline is imposed.
'Unsubstantiated': or 'Unable to Determine' - The alleged conduct was investigated but could not determine both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

Complaint
Description: On July 5, 2019, Plaintiff was detained and arrested without cause by NYPD Officers Alex Viera, Christian Lopez, and Michael Maynard, and falsely accused by the officers of hitting one of them with a bottle. The officers used excessive force in arresting Plaintiff, breaking two of his teeth. The Plaintiff was then confined without arraignment for more than 24 hours. The officers falsely told prosecutors that they had seen Plaintiff throw the bottle, but withheld exculpatory body camera footage. The charges were dismissed after a grand jury found the officers not believable. As a result of the false accusations, the Plaintiff has been continually harassed by other NYPD officers.
