A: You did not ask a question, but I assume you want to know if you can make a claim for money damages. Your description does not give enough information to determine if you have a potential valid claim, or if you are within the time limits to bring certain types of claims applicable to this situation. Contact a law office that handles police misconduct cases. Our office and many others in South Florida handle that type of claim.
