Civil Rights Violations by the Rio Grande County Sheriff's Office
The Rio Grande County Sheriff's Office is expected to serve and protect the community. When deputies or officers violate your constitutional rights, they must be held accountable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
Excessive Force
Officers who use more force than necessary during arrests, detentions, or other encounters violate your Fourth Amendment rights. This includes beatings, tasering, chokeholds, and other physical abuse.
False Arrest
Being arrested without probable cause is a serious constitutional violation. If you were arrested without evidence of a crime, you may have a civil rights claim.
Wrongful Imprisonment
Being held in jail without proper legal justification or beyond the legal time limits violates your constitutional rights to due process and liberty.
Unlawful Search & Seizure
The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches of your person, home, and property. Warrantless searches without consent or exigent circumstances may be illegal.
First Amendment Violations
Your rights to free speech, peaceful assembly, and recording police in public are constitutionally protected. Retaliation for exercising these rights is actionable.
Failure to Intervene
Officers who witness misconduct by fellow officers have a duty to intervene. Failure to stop constitutional violations can create liability for all officers present.
