Settlements
Year	Description	Outcome
2023	In January 2023, the Kentucky State Police agreed to pay Alex Hornback, his father, and their attorney $130,000 to settle a federal lawsuit. On April 9, 2020, state troopers attempted to arrest Hornback at his home in Shepherdsville, Kentucky, for a missed court appearance. Troopers James Cameron Wright and Thomas Czartorski allegedly used excessive force during the arrest and beat Hornback. The troopers then allegedly lied under oath by claiming that they did not strike Hornback, which was later contradicted by a home security video. Czartorski, who resigned in February 2021, agreed to pay an additional $5,000.
