Allegations:
Burton was at his clothing store with family and friends when Officers Dennis and Holcomb entered and searched the store and everyone there. The officers claimed they found a large quantity of cannabis, which did not belong to Burton, and then confiscated some $12,000 from under the cash register. Burton was arrested and spent more than 20 months in jail before he was acquitted of all charges. Dennis and Holcomb left Burton's business unsecured after the arrest, and the store was looted and vandalized, causing an estimated $30,000 in damages.
