Are You A Victim of Police Brutality in Colorado?
Sometimes, the police who are supposed to protect us, act outside of their authority, and cause serious physical and psychological injuries. At the Viorst Law Offices located in Denver Colorado, attorney Anthony Viorst knows how to deal with police officers who violate the public's trust.
Police brutality occurs when law enforcement uses excessive force, makes improper or illegal arrests, or falsely imprisons a person. If this has happened to you, your civil, state and federal Constitutional rights have been violated. You have to right make claims against the police under state and federal law.
Types of Police Brutality
There are different types of police brutality claims. Many of these claims are filed under Title 42, Section 1983 of the U.S. Code and include:
- Use of excessive force/police brutality—when police and other law enforcement agents respond to a situation using more physical force than necessary to control the situation
- False or unlawful arrest—when a police officer arrests someone without having "probable cause" that the person is committing or has committed a crime
- False imprisonment—when police or other law enforcement agents use unauthorized bodily restraint, not necessarily placing them in jail
