Plaintiff:
Edmund Frazier
Incident date:
10/22/2010
Location:
10127 S. Perry Ave.
Allegations:
Frazier was out with friends near 101st Street and South Perry Avenue when Officers Del Olmo and Fernandez pulled up to him while driving an unmarked squad car. Officers got out and patted Frazier down, asking where they could find “Kenny” and “the drugs.” Frazier said he didn't know where Kenny was. He was arrested and handcuffed. The officers kneed him in the groin, pushed him into the back of the police car and beat him on his face and body. Frazier received medical treatment at a hospital for injuries he suffered to his face. Officers later charged Frazier with two counts of battery to a police officer. After a bench trial, Frazier was found not guilty.
