A federal judge last week ordered the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office to turn over internal affairs documents to to a man who filed suit alleging he was attacked by police after he got into an argument with an Uber driver three years ago.

The photo has been admitted as an exhibit in the civil rights lawsuit. No video of the incident exists.
“On or about July 13, 2021, fabricated and back-dated use of force reports were created by or on behalf of the defendant officers with the assistance and cooperation of ,” the lawsuit alleges.
