Detective Christopher Hawthorne was named in a 2017 federal lawsuit by Keiona Harrison, alleging racial profiling and excessive force. Harrison claimed that Hawthorne and other officers handcuffed and searched her without cause. The officers filed a countersuit alleging slander and defamation.

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.
