Were you stopped on the street and charged with disorderly conduct while doing nothing illegal?
Were you beaten by police only because you fit a racial profile?
Did the police charge you with a crime and the judge tossed it out as baseless as soon as you stepped in front of him?
The above incidents are referred to as false arrest, excessive force and malicious prosecution. If you believe you were the victim of baseless charges by a police officer, you may find that your constitutional rights have been violated in the process.
