Officer Jared Taylor – St. George Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In April 2006, Officer Jared Taylor detained Mark Plascencia under suspicion of burglary. Taylor handcuffed Plascencia tightly, causing pain due to his arthritis, and allegedly struck him with a baton during a search. Plascencia passed out and was hospitalized. A jury found Taylor had unreasonably seized Plascencia and used excessive force, awarding $5,000 in damages.
