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.
'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: On April 6, 2016, plaintiff was at home when two strangers entered her apartment and knocked on her bedroom door demanding that she come out. Plaintiff complied and the men identified as police officers and informed plaintiff that they were searching a "Salvador." They refused to show any warrant and accused plaintiff of hiding "Salvador" even though she did not know who he was. The officers searched the apartment, going through drawers, closets and personal belongings, lifting mattresses, and rummaging through medicine cabinets.
