department officer chenz was a trainee having been on the 10th day of his job while officer mitkin was his trainer officer Mr Lindsay filed a lawsuit against both of these officers that led to an internal investigation officer chenis was found to have neglected to Halt the interview despite knowing that the individual Lindsay was not the suspect particularly upon realizing he was black chenis admitted to internal investig ators that he refrained from stopping the questioning because he felt uneasy correcting his training officer minin ba as a consequence the Westchester Police Department issued administrative warnings to both officers for their policy violations and mandated them to undergo retraining on field interviews if you think this was the only discriminatory act done by the police wait until you watch this next case are there any weapons or drugs in the car anything like that I so there's no guns in the car any no no narcotics awesome man your hands are shaking like a
