Deputy Brian Falatko was involved in a 2013 incident where he detained an individual without probable cause, leading to allegations of false arrest and false imprisonment. The detainee claimed that being handcuffed in the patrol car caused a back injury requiring surgery. Falatko prepared a written report on the incident, which became part of a lawsuit against the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Department.
