FALSE ARREST

On duty Minor False arrest or report

Plaintiff: Brady Smith

Incident date: 07/02/2016

Allegations:

Smith was with his two minor children when Sergeant Sautkus and other officers arrested him. Smith told the officers that his children would be left unattended if he got arrested, but Sautkus disregarded his request to arrange for them to be looked after, saying to Smith, "F**k your kid." At the police station, Smith was told that his kids were with their aunt, but he then told the police that the kids didn't have an aunt. Smith was allowed to call his home and find out about his children.
