Mr. Steering’s many years of experience and acquired knowledge can help you maximize your chances of actually winning your Police Misconduct Civil Rights case, and winning is the only thing that matters. If you cannot win your Civil Rights Police Misconduct Lawsuit then you have no rights, because you have no way to enforce them, and a right without a remedy in the real world does not exist.THE NEWPORT BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT IS OFTEN BRUTAL AND IS INSTITUTIONALLY DISHONEST.
If you don’t think that the Newport Beach Police Department are a brutal agency, just go to Newport Beach on the 4th of July and you will think otherwise. Just like the Huntington Beach Police Department does, on the 4th of July, the Newport Beach Police Department arrests just about anyone for the most de minimis violations, such as not having a license for your bicycle, or for public intoxication if your breath smells of alcohol at all; even from one beer no matter how sober you are. See, How many arrests in Newport Beach for the July Fourth holiday?; See also, 123 arrested in Newport Beach Fourth of July events; 31 in Hermosa, Los Angeles Times; Fourth of July arrests fall again in Newport, to 86, police say, Los Angeles Times.
Best advice; stay away from Newport Beach on the 4th of July or risk getting beaten and arrested even if you did nothing wrong.
Newport Beach Police Department police officers have also long had a well-deserved reputation for falsely arresting and beating-up civilians who verbally protest or verbally challenge their actions or authority; persons who they deem in “Contempt o Cop“. See, The “Contempt of Cop Game”; How Well Can You Play?, steeringlaw.
Verbal protest and verbal challenge to police orders and actions has long been held to be constitutionally protected conduct. See, City of Houston v. Hill, 482 U.S. 451 (1987)(“The freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state.”) However, the Newport Beach Police Department doesn’t think that the U.S. Constitution applies to them when you are deemed in “Contempt o Cop“.
Moreover, there is almost no limit Newport Beach police officers will do to protect themselves from the victims of their outrages.
They beat, falsely arrest and procure the malicious criminal prosecutions of their victims, because if they get their victims convicted for a “resistance offense” (i.e. resisting arrest or battery on peace officer) their victims will then be legally precluded from successfully suing the police via either collateral estoppel or via the case of Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994). The Newport Beach Police Department police officers may not be legal scholars, but they know that if your are convicted of a “resistance offense”, then you cannot successfully sue them.
Jerry L. Steering has also had great success in suing Newport Beach Police Department police officers for mistreating the public. See, Newport Beach Pays $360,000 to Woman Falsely Arrested over $16 Cab Ride.
