The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York denied qualified immunity for a police officer sued for fabrication of evidence

Another interesting case, and a sign of new times, came from the New York federal courts - from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, which denied a police officer qualified immunity for fabrication of evidence and pursuing criminal prosecution on the basis of a false affidavit.

The court decision is here.

I will elaborate on this post later.

Stay tuned.
