11:22Now PlayingIn a shocking case of apparent police misconduct, Tayvin Galanakis, a freshman football player at William Penn University, has filed a lawsuit against three Iowa police officers and the city of Newton following a controversial DUI arrest in August 2022. Bodycam footage from the incident reveals a disturbing scene as Galanakis, who had blown a 0.00 on a breathalyzer test and successfully completed sobriety tests, is forcibly placed under arrest. The video captures the 19-year-old's disbelief and outrage as he shouts, "Dude, I blew zero!" while being handcuffed and taken into custody. The footage has sparked widespread outrage and raised serious questions about the officers' actions and the potential violation of Galanakis' rights.

After being released later that night, once further tests confirmed his sobriety, Galanakis took the brave step of sharing the bodycam footage on his own social media accounts. The video quickly went viral, prompting an outpouring of support from the public and calls for justice. Encouraged by his supporters, Galanakis made the decision to take legal action against the officers involved in his arrest. In an exclusive interview with The Law&Crime Network's Sierra Gillespie, Galanakis discusses the details of his arrest, the impact it has had on his life, and his determination to hold the officers accountable for their actions.
