So far itโs at the state attorneyโs office from what my criminal lawyer tells me and the one will be charged with felony assault and the other were not sure but losing his job. The other 3 have no clue I have police friends and thatโs what they are talking about in the office. They followed me from one location to another theyโve heard some hearsay and believed it yet. I have never been charged with a thing my criminal lawyer is the one who represents their union so he took my case and Iโve got attorneys calling me out the ass half donโt even know what they are talking about all I want to know is. One of the owners of the place I went to for refuge the owner joined in the beating with the cops because he's their friends, it was a bar and I donโt drink liquor. I was looking for girls and this happened. So my question is I already know Iโm suing for liquor license and liability but other than personally sue the detectives can I sue the police department? Same detective harassed me on tape for no reason while jogging and tried to intimidate me and thatโs the main reason I got jumped by 2 detectives and the others just joined in. I sent the video I took even though itโs a third degree felony to record someoneโs voice on tape without them knowing the superior was upset with him but saw no wrong doing. That was in November the jogging the mugging because they stole from me was back in may. Just waiting on the state attorney to finish up their end.
Go ahead and secure a personal injury lawyer. You'll probably have to wait to do anything until the criminal proceedings are over, though, because of the defendants' 5th Amendment rights.
You asked if you can sue the Police Department. It appears that the police were off duty. If there was any evidence that they were acting in any capacity as police officers, then the answer is yes, as opposed to just private citizens. And if they have done this kind of thing before, or if the department knew or should have known that they did this kind of thing, then yes. But there a number of legal defenses available to public entity employees, and public entities that are not available to the private parties.
