In March 2019, Officer Terry Peck conducted a traffic stop on Rasaan Hamilton. During the arrest, Peck allegedly slammed Hamilton’s face into the side of a patrol car with enough force to knock out several of Hamilton’s teeth. This incident led to a federal indictment for deprivation of rights under color of law, carrying a maximum sentence of up to 10 years in prison. Peck was fired by the Gary Police Civil Service Commission following a disciplinary complaint related to this assault. Additionally, Hamilton filed a federal lawsuit against Peck and the city of Gary seeking over $2 million in damages.
