In 1994, Police Chief Michael Lolley conducted a criminal history check on Thomas A. Anderson after Anderson threatened to sue the city over a prior arrest. This led to Anderson’s wrongful arrest on a warrant intended for his father. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals found that the officers had arguable probable cause for the initial arrest but did not address the propriety of the subsequent actions leading to the wrongful arrest. The case highlighted concerns about the department’s handling of individual rights and due process.
