"Alabama City Faces $36M Lawsuit Over Excessive Force in Jawan Dallas Death"
The City of Mobile has released 911 audio recordings and transcripts in response to a federal lawsuit filed by the family of Jawan Dallas, who died after an encounter with police. The lawsuit accuses the city of wrongful death, assault/battery, unconstitutional policy, retaliation, unlawful seizure, and unlawful use of force. Attorneys for the Dallas family claim that Police Chief Paul Prine provided a false narrative about what happened. The city released the audio and transcripts to refute these claims and defend the police chief's character. Supporters of Dallas have been calling for the release of body-worn video footage, which has not yet been made public. The family is seeking $36 million in damages.
