| 2023 |
In February 2023, San Bernardino County, California, agreed to a $500,000 settlement with truck driver Tommy Franks Jr. after a federal jury found that a sheriff’s deputy violated his civil rights during a wrongful arrest. In 2019, Deputy Tyler Loup stopped Franks, who had just delivered produce to a grocery store, and accused him of loitering. Loup then arrested Franks for refusing to identify himself. Franks spent a night in jail but was never charged. His lawsuit alleged unlawful arrest and excessive use of force. On February 1, 2023, a jury concluded that the arrest lacked probable cause and that Loup acted with reckless disregard for constitutional rights. The County settled the case shortly afterward. |
