On this IA Story episode, Garet covers an incident involving a sergeant allegedly assaulting a juvenile near Broadway, Nashville, which resulted in a criminal investigation. At the time of recording this episode, this IA case is still open. Atif and Garet also discuss consensual encounters, consent, the DA's decision to not prosecute the case, and some issues affecting internal investigations into employee misconduct.
Near the end of the episode, Garet covers four educative tips. Citizens are encouraged to stay calm during bad police encounters and record when possible. Officers are encouraged to understand the limits of what they can do in situations and to uphold their duty to intervene when a fellow officer engages in misconduct.
Garet also shares his personal concerns about the records request process for this case and how the Metro Police leadership may be mishandling this case for ulterior motives which are not in the public interest.
