Jacqueline Schichtl – Sherwood Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Officer Jacqueline Schichtl participated in the 2019 arrest of Robert Ward after responding to a noise complaint. Ward alleged that Schichtl was involved in using excessive force during the arrest, leading to a traumatic brain injury. Ward filed a lawsuit claiming violation of his constitutional rights. In 2024, the court dismissed the lawsuit, determining that Schichtl’s actions were reasonable.

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.
