According to CBS Miami, Archer has been a defendant in several other lawsuits involving excessive force, including Guy Moulin, who settled with the city for $60,000 in 2013 after he alleged he was beaten by Archer.
Miami Beach police on Monday released the video of Archer’s altercation with Adamescu, along with 500 pages of investigation material.
“This officer should have been fired,” Mossberg’s attorney, Ray Taseff, told CBS. “Mr. Mossberg does the right thing and makes the right call, and he is then retaliated against by Officer Archer.”
A state attorney and the FBI chose not to prosecute Archer after the incident. According to a memo provided to the Miami New Times, prosecutors did not think the video was clear enough to “prove a criminal intent on the part of the subject.”
