| 2024 |
In January 2024, the City Council of Long Beach, California, agreed to pay $300,000 to settle a federal lawsuit brought by Johnny Jackson, a prostate cancer patient who alleged that police used “brutal” force against him the day after he had surgery. In September 2022, an unmarked police vehicle followed Jackson as he drove home, and officers confronted him in his driveway over an expired vehicle registration. Jackson informed the officers that he had just undergone prostate surgery and presented a doctor’s note, but the officers forcefully detained him. The lawsuit claimed that officers kneed him in the groin multiple times, twisted his arm, and left him with bruised wrists from tight handcuffs. Jackson later required emergency medical treatment after urinating blood for two days. While the City did not admit liability, Jackson’s attorney said the payment represented acknowledgment of the harm done and urged reform to prevent such mistreatment by the police. |
