Espinosa alleged is that he was tased both while being placed in the patrol vehicle and while attempting to put his vehicle in Park after the officers ordered him to stop considering the relatively minor nature of his suspected offense and the absence of a clear threat a court would likely find the taser use unreasonable especially after he was handcuffed to the car try to open the door get out

and get his wallet cuz he wouldn't tell me anything and then that's when that's when you rolled up okay I'm going to get him over to the jail I'll have M meet you at the jail Mr Espinosa was briefly incarcerated following his arrest but the charges were later dropped prompting him to file a federal lawsuit citing constitutional breaches disturbingly records disclose Lieutenant tru's criminal
