Misconduct

Luke Edney and Daniel Ficek subjected a local food delivery driver to unnecessary actions during a routine traffic stop, which disrupted his delivery schedule, cost him money, and could affect his performance rating. The incident reportedly began when he was pulled over due to a vehicle registration issue.

Instead of issuing a simple ticket, officers removed the driver from his car and instructed him to face a wall while they illegally searched his vehicle—preventing him from observing the illegal search. When I requested information from the officers after the stop, they stated, “We’re not talking to you.”
