ANOTHER Topper? So embarassing that the judge "sealed" the case.

Evelyn Lugo Claims The NYPD Barged Into Home, Beat Up Family, And Killed Parakeet Over A Borrowed Orange Traffic Cone
A Staten Island woman claims the New York Police Department
barged into her home without a warrant, beat up her family, and killed
her parakeet.
Evelyn Lugo, 57, told the New York Daily News that her beloved bird Tito was knocked off a dresser when cops barged into her home.
“I screamed, ‘The bird!’” said Lugo’s 30-year-old daughter Anna Febles, “And he said, ‘F--- the bird,’ and he, like, stepped on it.”
According to Lugo’s lawsuit against the NYPD, the incident occurred Sept. 2, 2012, as her family was having a Labor Day barbecue.
Her son Edwin Avellanet, 26, was taking out the garbage when police stopped him to ask about an orange cone placed in front of the home to save a parking spot, says attorney Jason Levelthal.
The NYPD asked for Avellenet’s identification and he refused, stating he hadn’t done anything wrong. An officer grabbed him by the arm, but he broke free and retreated into the house.
Lugo says officers smashed several first-floor windows in order to get into the home. She opened the door to see who it was, and they allegedly barged in.
“It was completely uncalled for,” Leventhal said. “There was no excuse for going into the house without a warrant.”
Lugo claims the rowdy cops trampled through the house looking for Lugo and beating people up along the way. The suit filed Nov. 29 claims her son George Lugo and a family friend, Luis Ortego, were repeatedly hit in the head with a police baton.
“They threw me like a piece of garbage on the floor,” Lugo said.
The NYPD used pepper spray that interfered with Lugo’s daughter’s asthma. She went into a bedroom to catch her breath and was arrested. Criminal charges against her, Ortega, and Lugo were later dismissed and sealed, the claim says.
“They (the cops) don’t care about us as humans, they’re going to care about the bird?” Lugo said.
Febles didn’t tell her mother that Tito was dead until the following day because she feared Lugo would be hysterical.
“Ever since then I have been sick and depressed,” Lugo said. “I was hurt on the inside, in my heart.”
The suit seeks unspecified damages for unlawful search and seizure, excessive force and malicious prosecution.

This cop did more than he was officially charged wih, of course
Pennsylvania: Man Arrested For Criticizing Cops Speeding Sues
Speeding Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania cop sued for arresting a man for standing while black and criticizing police for speeding.
A
school teacher is seeking compensation after he was arrested in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for criticizing police officers who violated
the speed limit. The American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania
filed a lawsuit on Tuesday on behalf of Dennis Henderson, who spent
twelve hours in jail.
On June 26, 2013, Henderson left a community meeting and was standing on the side of the road talking with New Pittsburgh Courier photographer Rossano Stewart. Officer Jonathan Gromek zipped past in his squad car close to the men, so Henderson jumped back and yelled, "Wow." Officer Gromek made a U-turn and confronted Henderson.
"I don't even know how he heard that," Stewart said on the day of the incident. "He came back and said, 'You got a problem with the way I'm driving?' ...He got out of the car and he started being aggressive. He started walking towards us."
Henderson told Officer Gromek that he wanted to file a complaint and he wanted his badge number. The officer grew angrier.
"So he said, 'I tell you what, both of you, you got ID?'" Stewart recalled. "So I showed him my ID. 'You got a problem with that, you can talk about it downtown. Both of you are now under arrest.'"
Henderson and Stewart were handcuffed, more police arrived and a crowd gathered. Stewart was released, but Henderson was booked at Allegheny County Jail where he was forced to spend the night on charges of obstruction of highways, disorderly conduct by means of unreasonable noise, and resisting arrest. The city itself admits the arrest was bogus and the charges were dropped.
"Based upon our investigation, Officer Gromek was found to have violated the following Pittsburgh Bureau of Police policies; conduct toward the public, conduct unbecoming and incompetency," Pittsburgh's Office of Municipal Investigations Manager Kathy Kraus wrote in an October 1 letter to Henderson.
A social studies teacher at Manchester Academic Charter School, Henderson filed the lawsuit to serve as a lesson for more than just the local police.
"I want to show my students that, regardless of your neighborhood, ethnicity, attire, age, or socioeconomic status, no one should be harassed, arrested and placed into the criminal justice system by a police officer who operates under a code of profiling, provoking and arresting individuals without just cause," Henderson said in a statement.
The ACLU lawsuit alleges Officer Gromek violated Henderson's First Amendment right peacefully to express himself, his Fourth Amendment Right not to be falsely arrested and imprisoned, and his Fourteenth Amendment right to equal protection under the law.
