Todd Patalano – Cranston Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Captain Todd Patalano faced disciplinary action in February 2012 for failing to comply with an order to produce evidence related to an ongoing investigation into potential wrongdoing on his part. He received a one-day suspension, which remained in effect until he complied with the order. Patalano filed a motion seeking to declare the suspension unlawful and requested preliminary injunctive relief.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
