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.

Sergent, J. Danee vs City of New York, et al.Case # 20CV08161, U.S. District Court - Southern District NY, October 6, 2020, ended August 18, 2021
$35,000 Settlement
Complaint
Description: On September 28, 2019, plaintiff was out on a street corner with friends when a large group of police arrived and began questioning the group. Plaintiff commented that the police were only there to protect white people. In response, Police Officers Erica Rivera (ID 951148) and Toni Burke (ID 952512) grabbed plaintiff's sweatshirt in a way that choked him, then tasered him and placed him in handcuffs. Plaintiff was held at the precinct and later arraigned. Officer Rivera falsely alleged that plaintiff resisted arrest and prevented the officers' investigation. Charges were eventually dismissed.
