In Jonathan Osborne v. City of Upland, Mr. Steering successfully defended a bogus criminal resisting arrest case in San Bernardino County Superior Court, and thereafter, sued the involved Upland Police Department officers in United States District Court.

MR. STEERING HAS DEFENDED BOGUS RESISTANCE OFFENSE CASES AND HAS SUED SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY POLICE OFFICIALS SINCE 1986.

Here are a few examples of cases that Mr. Steering has won against the Sheriff Department; an agency that has literally gone off of the deep end in the High Desert / Victor Valley area:

Morgan v. County of San Bernardino, U.S. Dist. Court, Cent. Dist. of Cal. (Riverside) (1996), $714,000.00 settlement following jury verdict for excessive force and false arrest during search warrant execution in Apple Valley, California;

Austin v. County of San Bernardino, U.S. District Court, Central District of California, $500,000.00 jury verdict for false arrest and excessive force;

Lopez v. County of San Bernardino, U.S. Dist. Court Cent. Dist. of Cal. (Riverside) (2002), $50,000.00 settlement for racially motivated battery;

Miller v. City of San Bernardino, et al, U.S. Dist. Court Cent. Dist. of Cal. (Riverside) (2003), $35,000.00 settlement for unlawful detention;

Aubrey v. County of San Bernardino, et. al, U.S. Dist. Court (LA) 2012, $325,000.00 settlement for the use of unreasonable force and for false arrest; and

Jones v. County of San Bernardino, et al.; $170,000.00 U.S. Dist. Court (LA) settlement for unreasonable seizure of person.

Penny Trent v. County of San Bernardino, et al., $600,000.00 settlement for unreasonable seizure of person.

David Scott v. County of San Bernardino, et al; $390,000.00 settlement after winning case on appeal to the United States Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

Although SB County is not nearly as heavily populated as other areas in Southern California, the “crime rate” of crimes and Constitutional Torts committed by the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department is astounding. It seems that San Bernardino County is the hotbed for “cops gone wild.” These deputies are simply out of control, and nobody is going to do anything about; at least anybody from the Sheriff’s Department, or the Judges of the San Bernardino County Superior Court.
