In September 2010, Officer Aaron Lewis of the Carson City Alternative Sentencing Department was accused of falsely imprisoning a female charge and coercing her into exposing her body under threat of arrest. The lawsuit alleged that Lewis conducted a purported drug test late at night, claimed the results were positive, and used this as leverage to intimidate the woman into compliance. A subsequent internal investigation was conducted, and Lewis was placed on paid administrative leave. The lawsuit sought damages exceeding $20,000 for severe emotional and mental distress caused by the incidents.
