Officer Chad Graybeal – Lake Havasu City Police Department

On June 7, 2023, Officer Graybeal was involved in the arrest of David Adams, a man with developmental disabilities. During the incident, officers used unprofessional language, including derogatory terms, and applied excessive force by repeatedly tasering Adams. An internal investigation found that officers violated department policies regarding language and issued letters of counseling. No formal disciplinary action was taken beyond this. A federal civil rights lawsuit alleging excessive force and other claims was filed against the city and involved officers.

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.
