Case # 517307/2021, Supreme Court - Kings, July 15, 2021, ended April 19, 2022
$12,500 Settlement
Complaint
Description: On April 25, 2020, P.O.s Thomas Bay, Matthew Glynn, and other officers chased Mr. Myquan Jones with no reasonable suspicion that he had committed a crime. They slammed into him with a car. They arrested him for gambling and other related charges, all of which he denies. The police maintain that they saw him inside a circle containing 10-15 people in the context of a game of dice. The police purposely kept their body cameras turned off; in their Decline to Prosecute Report, it says their body cameras were off due to technical difficulties. They detained Mr. Jones for 21 hours before declining to prosecute and releasing him.
