City calls the settlement “purely a business decision” to resolve Joseph Iniguez’s federal civil rights lawsuit at a “minimal cost.”
The city of Azusa has paid a $10,000 settlement to Joseph Iniguez, the top aide of Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, who in July dropped his federal civil rights lawsuit against the municipality stemming from his 2021 arrest for public intoxication.
“The settlement in no way represents any admission of liability or wrongdoing on the part of the City of Azusa or any of our officers,” Gonzalez said. “The City of Azusa and Chief Wenrick fully support the actions of our dedicated officers and are happy to have this matter come to a mutually acceptable resolution.”
Iniguez, who was a passenger in the car, “exited the vehicle and began telling that he did not have to answer any questions nor did he have to conduct any field sobriety tests,” says the report submitted by Azusa police Cpl. R. Martinez. “I could see that his eyes were bloodshot and watery, he had slurred speech, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from his breath and person, he admitted to consuming alcoholic beverages and he was not listening to commands from officers.
Police eventually put Iniguez in handcuffs, placed him in a patrol car, and drove him to the Azusa jail, where he was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor public intoxication. However, there are no records on file with Los Angeles County Superior Court showing that Iniguez was charged in connection with the arrest.
