Incident 237

Date Nov 01, 2006
Department Buffalo Police Department
Officers Gregory M. Kwiatkowski , Cariol J. Horne , H Mccarthy Gipson
Description

In 2006, Officer Cariol Horne intervened to stop a fellow officer, Gregory Kwiatkowski, who was choking Neal Mack, a Black man who was already placed under arrest and handcuffed. Horne was assaulted by the officer during the intervention, and thereafter the Buffalo Police Department punished officer Cariol Horne by terminating her for attempting to stop the assault by her fellow officer upon a citizen —just one year shy of receiving her full pension.
