Lawsuit alleges Laurel officers violated citizen’s rights in unlawful arrest
SUMMARY: A woman is suing police officers and the city for violating her constitutional rights during a traffic stop in February 2023. Jaquila Stevens was arrested for failure to comply with an officer and resisting arrest, but was later found not guilty. The federal lawsuit names four Laurel Police Department officers, the chief, and the city as defendants. Body camera footage is cited as evidence supporting Stevens' version of events.
