In 2014, Officer Jeff Sagen was involved in a traffic stop of a group of motorcyclists, during which he issued multiple infractions. The stop led to a lawsuit alleging violations of constitutional rights, including unlawful extension of the stop’s duration and discrimination. The court found that the plaintiffs failed to demonstrate a genuine issue of material fact concerning the City of Kennewick’s policies or customs leading to constitutional violations. The specific outcome regarding Officer Sagen’s actions is not detailed in the available sources.
