Wildwood has settled a federal lawsuit filed by a woman whose arrest was captured on video in 2018.
Weinman had alleged that the two seasonal police officers “brutally and senselessly assaulted” her during the arrest over an unopened alcoholic beverage. The lawsuit alleges that the officers exaggerated how much Weinman was resisting to justify the use of force.
Weinman can be heard in the video screaming, “They're choking me! I cannot breathe.”
