As a police misconduct attorney, I found the most common reason for the police to beat you, falsely arrest you and procure your malicious criminal prosecution for a “Resistance Offense”, is when you “Fail the Attitude Test”; when you commit “Contempt of Cop”. “Contempt of Cop” is simply a civilian verbally questioning, challenging or protesting police actions. Don't let the police shift the blame from them to you for the police use of force upon you. Mr. Steering is an expert & specialist in defending bogus criminal “Contempt of Cop” (i.e. resisting arrest, battery on peace officer) cases, and in suing police officers for “Contempt of Cop” / "Bruised Ego" constitutional violations such as:
- Excessive Force / Police Brutality
- False Arrest (Cal. Penal Code §§ 69, 148(a)(1), 243(b))
- Malicious Prosecution
- First Amendment Whistle Blower Violations
