In 2016, Sergeant Fiorilla initiated a traffic stop without reasonable suspicion, leading to the unlawful arrest of Mr. Lankford. During the arrest, Fiorilla used excessive force by taking Lankford to the ground and attempting to gain control of his hands, which were underneath Lankford’s body. The municipal court later dismissed all charges against Lankford, citing the unlawful nature of the stop.
