- Appeals Court Upholds Dismissal of Metro Nashville Police Department Misconduct Case, Takes Issue with Officer Conduct
A U.S. Court of Appeals panel upheld dismissal of a case against Metro Nashville Police Department over an incident involving Naya Abbey, a pregnant woman with an autistic child, but left a small portion of the case unresolved. Officers claimed Abbey evaded arrest and endangered others, but 911 tapes contradicted their account, showing she drove at normal speeds and was followed for 15 minutes by police and aviation units.
