Police Misconduct

Police misconduct refers to inappropriate conduct and or illegal actions taken by police officers in connection with their official duties. Police misconduct can lead to a miscarriage of justice and sometimes involves discrimination and or illegal motives of segregation combined as obstruction of justice. In an effort to control police misconduct, there is an accelerating trend for civilian agencies to go beyond review to engage directly in investigations and to have much greater input into disciplinary decisions. In addition, individuals and groups are now filming police in an effort to force police to become accountable for their actions and for their inactions. With the proliferation of mobile devices capable of recording alleged misconduct, police misconduct and abuse is now receiving publicity on social media and on websites including YouTube. In response, police often try to intimidate citizens to prevent them from using cameras. In other circumstances, police will illegally seize or delete evidence recorded by citizens, notwithstanding laws that make it a crime to destroy evidence of a crime being committed, irrespective of whether the crime is committed by civilians or by the police.

Types of misconduct include coerced false confession, intimidation, false arrest, false imprisonment, falsification of evidence, spoliation of evidence, police perjury, witness tampering, police brutality, tasering, police corruption, racial profiling, unwarranted surveillance, unwarranted searches, and unwarranted seizure of property. Others include:

• Bribing or lobbying legislators to pass or maintain laws that give police excessive power or status
• Similarly, bribing or lobbying city council members to pass or maintain municipal laws that make victim-less acts tickettable (e.g. bicycling on the sidewalk), so as to get more money
• Selective enforcement ("throwing the book at" people who one dislikes; this is often related to racial discrimination)
• Sexual misconduct
• Off-duty misconduct
• Killing of dogs unjustly
• Noble cause corruption, where the officer believes the good outcomes justify bad behavior
• Using badge or other ID to gain entry into concerts, to get discounts, etc.
• Influence of drugs or alcohol while on duty
• Violations by officers of police procedural policies

Police officers often share a "blue code of silence", which means that they do not turn each other in for misconduct. While some officers have called this code a myth, a 2005 survey found evidence that it exists.

Appeals

Mistakes happen to everyone in every area of life. Even in criminal trials. Whether you have entered a plea, or been convicted by a judge or jury, you still have a direct right to an appeal. If you feel that you were not properly represented, or that you did not receive the protections afforded to you by the United States and Ohio Constitutions, then you should appeal.

Expungements

As of September, 2012, Ohio's Expungement law has changed to allow a broader range of criminal convictions to be expunged, and sealed from public view.  Nemann Law Offices is already preparing numerous motions on behalf of clients, and has had likely one of the first such motions granted, less than two weeks after the law's change. 

Judicial Release

Judicial Release, formerly known as "shock probation," is a way to get an imprisoned person out before their release date. The individual is released from jail and the remainder of their sentence is converted to probation. In September of 2011, Ohio House Bill 86 eased the eligibility requirements for those that are incarcerated.
