Conclusion Meanings:

'Exonerated': or 'Within NYPD Guidelines' - the alleged conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
'Unsubstantiated': or 'Unable to Determine' - CCRB has fully investigated but could not affirmatively conclude both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

Case # 17CV00515, U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY
Complaint
Description: Before the incident date, defendants were investigating a number of commercial robberies in Bedford Stuyvesant, Kings County in April 2015. On the incident date, the plaintiff was arrested, imprisoned, and later gave a false and coerced written confession. Defendant Det. Montas told the plaintiff that he would get shot unless he wrote a confession under Montas' guidance. This confession led to the plaintiff's unlawful arrest. The plaintiff was acquitted of all charges after 17 months in jail.
