Conclusion Meanings:

'Exonerated': or 'Within NYPD Guidelines' - the alleged conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
'Substantiated': The alleged conduct occurred and it violated the rules. The NYPD has discretion over what, if any, discipline is imposed.
'Unfounded': Evidence suggests that the event or alleged conduct did not occur.
'Unsubstantiated': or 'Unable to Determine' - CCRB has fully investigated but could not affirmatively conclude both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

Complaint
Description: Plaintiffs had filed a complaint against Lt. Meyer with IAB in April of 2016. On May 15, 2016, Plaintiff Gorin, who was 16 at the time, saw Lt. Meyer approaching him outside the building. Plaintiff Gorin attempted to walk away from the officers, but Lt. Meyer followed him, pushed him against a wall and threatened to spray him with a chemical spray canister. Plaintiff Reyes and Plaintiff Segar began to film the interaction. Lt. Meyer sprayed Plaintiff Gorin, while other officers blocked the camera's line of sight. Lt. Meyer then allegedly said, "take them all" and began to spray his chemical spray at Plaintiffs Reyes and Segar. Officers then pushed Plaintiff Reyes, who was 10 weeks pregnant at the time, up again...
