    In January 2024, Deputy Holzer was named in a federal civil rights lawsuit filed by Tristan Kirk Assance, alleging violations of the Fourth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments. The lawsuit claims that during a 2021 incident, Holzer fired four shots from an AR-15 rifle at Assance, striking him twice, after allegedly mistaking the sound of a Taser for gunfire. The suit seeks compensatory and punitive damages for permanent injuries and emotional distress resulting from the shooting.

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.
