In March 2016, Officer Timothy Dobeck was involved in the investigation and arrest of Anthony Novak, who created a parody Facebook page of the Parma Police Department. Dobeck’s actions contributed to Novak’s arrest and prosecution. After Novak’s acquittal, he filed a civil-rights lawsuit alleging First and Fourth Amendment violations. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals allowed the lawsuit to proceed, indicating potential misconduct by Dobeck.
