Description: On May 4, 2018, plaintiff was meeting with friends to leave for a party when four unidentified plainsclothes police officers, Anthony Cassase, Daniel Maria, Robert Cabrera, and Sergeant Crane, approached. Plaintiff began to walk away when an officer tackled him to the ground and searched him, finding a handgun. Plaintiff was arrested and charged with criminal possession of a weapon and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Plaintiff was held in jail for over a year after his indictment; the case was dismissed on July 2, 2019 on grounds that it was an illegal search.
