“There were officers on both sides,” said his defense attorney, Darrell Robinson. “This was a police-on-police brutality case.” He was working authorized part-time security at a party when neighbors called Prince George's County police complaining about noise. In cellphone video obtained by News4, he can be heard identifying himself as an officer. “He waited until I got to the doorway to yell out, ‘He has a gun,’” he said. “Several officers tackled me to the ground face down. They put their knee in my back. One was about to tase me.” According to his attorney, he won his case after a Prince George's County lieutenant testified the other county officers who took the stand weren't telling the truth about what happened. The jury ruled the off-duty officer’s civil rights were violated.
