Police Brutality

Representing Victims of Police Brutality and Misconduct: Behnke, Martin & Schulte, L.L.C.

As citizens, we trust police officers to use their authority and training to keep us safe. Occasionally, however, some police officers use poor judgment and abuse this authority, causing harm to the very citizens they have sworn to protect. While the vast majority of law enforcement officers are dedicated and ethical, the officers who are not tarnish the reputation of the force as a whole. Not only is police brutality and misconduct an egregious violation of public trust and authority, it is also illegal, and guilty law enforcement officers can and must be held legally accountable for their crimes. Some common claims upon which police brutality or misconduct charges are built include:

  • Excessive use of force
  • Wrongful imprisonment
  • Harassment
  • Accepting of bribes
  • Blackmail
  • Improper searches
  • Discrimination
  • Verbal abuse
