Cosme, Cesar vs City of New York, et al.
Case # 511572/2020, Supreme Court - Kings, November 5, 2020
Complaint
Description: On September 17, 2018, at approximately 9:00 a.m. in Brooklyn, New York, Cesar Cosme was arrested in court for assault, possession of a firearm, menacing, and harassment related to an incident on August 11, 2018. Cosme denies the charges, which stemmed from a complaint by his ex-girlfriend and an individual named Jason Tejada, who claimed Cosme shot him. Cosme asserts that the allegations were fabricated, as there was no evidence, witnesses, or surveillance linking him to the shooting, and no firearm was found in his possession. He was incarcerated for two days, paid $3,500 for legal representation, and was unlawfully strip-searched. The case was dismissed and sealed on March 29, 2019.
