Dion Rabouin offers to leave a Phoenix bank — then gets handcuffed. Years later, Phoenix authorizes up to $100,000 to settle his lawsuit. Brad Graves examines the November 23, 2022 bodycam: the bank's account, Rabouin's denial that anyone asked him to leave, the ID demand, wallet search, witness, backup officers, warning and release. Phoenix police sustained an improper-search allegation and marked the detention, excessive-force and racial-bias allegations unfounded. Civilian oversight criticized the investigation and discipline. The September 9, 2026 city action approved a settlement; it was not a jury verdict or proof of every allegation. No cleared payment receipt is claimed.
