At no time did I formally give up my rights, nor upon questioning was I told I could not file a formal complaint. I will sit down with the OPD and discuss it in a reasonable manner. The Lt. already acknowledged some of the violations of my rights, and I will get the rest acknowledged by one means or another. I told him I want more than anything else to see appropriate training come out of this. I'm not sure when I will be meeting with the fuzz, but I am going to have the whole thing recorded.
If they want to place nice for a bit that is fine, but I will ratchet up as I see fit. I will also be talking to the city attorney.

He asked me rather than file a formal complaint if I would agree to "mediation" which involves me, the three officers involved and Lt. Wilson sitting down at a "neutral" location and going over the incident. I told him that if it resulted in better training that I would agree. I am going to push for a training bulletin to be issued.
They want you to agree to mediation because you willthen give up your right to sue at a later time if things aren't settled to your satisfaction.
