A federal jury in Virginia on Tuesday found mostly in favor of two police officers who were sued by a U.S. Army lieutenant after he was pepper sprayed, struck and handcuffed during a traffic stop. The jury also awarded Nazario $1,000 in punitive damages after Windsor police officer Daniel Crocker illegally searched Nazario’s SUV, the attorneys said. A federal judge already ruled last year that Crocker was liable for the search. The jury found in favor of Crocker and against Nazario’s claims of assault and battery and false imprisonment, the attorneys said. U.S. District Judge Roderick C. Young had narrowed the scope of Nazario’s lawsuit.
Since the traffic stop, Nazario has developed anxiety, depression and PTSD, according to his lawsuit. “In fact, shortly after the traffic stop, Mr. Nazario deployed to Washington, D.C. in support of the January 6, 2021 disturbance.”Nazario, a medical officer, said he arrived after the insurrection occurred, according to a deposition. Besides Nazario’s lawsuit, fallout from the traffic stop includes a lawsuit brought by the state attorney general that alleges Windsor discriminated against Black Americans. U.S. District Judge Roderick C. Young also narrowed the scope of Nazario’s lawsuit. That episode happened during a 2019 traffic stop while Gutierrez served as a sheriff’s deputy in Isle of Wight County.
Guvernatorul statului american Virginia, Ralph Northam, a ordonat duminică declanşarea unei anchete după difuzarea de imagini în care se putea vedea cum doi poliţişti îşi îndreaptă armele asupra unui militar de culoare şi îl stropesc pe faţă cu spray paralizant, scrie Agerpres. Imaginile îl arată pe locotenentul Caron Nazario, afro şi latino-american, întrebând de mai multe ori cu ce a greşit şi declarând „asta-i o porcărie totală”, în timp ce poliţiştii îi ordonă să iasă din maşină. Nazario, care purta uniformă militară, se afla la volanul unei maşini noi ce nu avea încă plăcuţe de înmatriculare permanente atunci când poliţiştii i-au cerut să oprească. Guvernatorul statului Virginia a informat într-un comunicat că îi va cere poliţiei să declanşeze „o anchetă independentă”, subliniind că înregistrarea video este „degradantă şi i-a stârnit furia”. Poliţia americană este acuzată frecvent de rasism şi de violenţe.
