Primary tabs
Affidavits from La'Shanda Flowers, Tache Young, and Derrick Latham regarding what they saw when Benny Warr was attacked by Rochester Police Department officers Joseph “Joey” M. Ferrigno II, Anthony “Rock” R. Liberatore, and Mitchell “Big Face” R. Stewart II on May 1, 2013.
[La'Shanda Flowers recounts,] "After they threw him to the ground, one of the officers put his knee in Benny's back. I could not understand why the police were doing this to Benny—I told them this—they told me to get away.”
[Tache Young recounts,] “the officers kicked Benny Warr in his head and side and kneed him. At no time did Benny Warr do anything to provoke the attack and he did not try to resist being arrested by the police officers.”
[Derrick Latham recounts,] "Benny said he was not resisting. I think the officers kicked Benny when he was on the ground, and they kneed Benny while he was on the ground."
