What is Police Misconduct?

Police misconduct is a blanket term that describes when a police officer engages in or abuse. In short, police misconduct occurs when the police harm the citizens they swore to protect. The expectation for police officers is that they will only use the force that is necessary to subdue a suspect.

You may have been a victim of excessive force if you were subjected to:

  • Beating
  • Gang tackling
  • Improper use of a taser, baton, police dogs, or pepper spray
  • Unreasonable shooting
  • Excessive restraint
  • Sexual assault, including strip searches

This type of misconduct is not only physical. You may also be entitled to compensation if you have been a victim of any of the following:

  • Threats or intimidation
  • Planting or fabrication of evidence
  • A coerced confession
  • Perjury

Protecting Your Constitutional Rights with Tenacity

It is an unfortunate truth that police officers can abuse their power. Whether the misconduct is due to poor training, bad judgment, or discrimination, your constitutional rights may have been violated. You may be entitled to monetary damages to compensate for the pain and suffering you have endured, as well as for any related medical expenses.

The United States of America has laws in place to protect the fundamental rights of every citizen, and those who encroach upon such rights and freedoms may be held accountable in a court of law. Contact our firm today to get started on your case with a free consultation.
