Officer Matthew Medeiros participated in a 2014 pursuit that ended with the suspect’s surrender. Despite the suspect’s compliance, Medeiros and other officers reportedly engaged in excessive force, including physical assault and the use of a Taser. They subsequently filed false reports about the incident. This behavior was indicative of a larger pattern of misconduct within the department.
