Julio Jimenez Lopez and two companions were sitting outside, drinking lagers, following a day of planting before he wound up nailed face-down, in a pool of his blood, by two California cops, as per another government claim.
Officials Brandon Nail and Daisy Mazariegos showed up and examined the triplet concerning their open holders of lager in San Rafael on July 27, 2022. It was a day that left Lopez with “life changing” wounds, including a messed up nose and horrible cerebrum injury, a protest recorded July 24 in San Francisco says.
Mazariegos began asking Lopez inquiries in Spanish and mentioned to see his ID, as per the grievance, which says the two officials realized the nursery worker didn’t “completely grasp” orders in English.
At the point when Lopez rose up to recover his ID from his jeans pocket, Mazariegos requested him to plunk down — so he did, prior to making sense of he expected to rise up to get his ID.
After Lopez — who is about 5 feet tall and 130 pounds — stood up again, Nail, who is 6 feet, 2 inches tall and 250 pounds, told him to “sit the (expletive) down,” the complaint says.
Then, Nail is accused of suddenly tackling Lopez, who had his hands up, and repeatedly punching him in the face. It caused him to excessively bleed before both officers “continued to aggressively detain (him) unlawfully,” leaving him “in a pool of his own blood,” according to the complaint.
Now, Lopez and his wife, Yesenia Cruz Cruz, are suing the City of San Rafael, its police department, Nail, Mazariegos and others not identified in the complaint. The couple accuses the defendants of violating Lopez’s civil rights and wrongfully arresting him.
Nail and Mazariegos are no longer employed by the San Rafael Police Department, San Rafael Police Lt. Scott Eberle confirmed to McClatchy News in a statement on July 25.
“The circumstances surrounding the separation are confidential personnel matters and we are not able to disclose the reasons why,” Eberle said.
