Boulder agreed to pay $400K for the offense. Two days later, a sergeant did it again.

Newman also represented Lauren Gotthelf in the aftermath of her encounter with Boulder authorities on November 25, 2017. On that day, she was smoking a cigarette and walking on the Pearl Street Mall with her dog, Sage, who had just posed for a photo with a costumed Santa Claus, when she was stopped by Boulder Police officers.
Cole was taken into custody during the early hours of September 23, 2020, on misdemeanor charges. At Boulder County Jail, he was uncooperative, choosing to passively resist orders — and in response, Newman says,"he was strapped into a restraint chair, spit bags were pulled over his head, and Sergeant Mecca taunted him before placing a taser against his leg and goading him some more.
She adds that"none of the Boulder sheriff's deputies who were there reported this unconstitutional use of excessive force. The only reason it came to light was because some officers from the were there, too. They observed Boulder's unconstitutional conduct and reported it to their own superiors, and it made its way to Boulder. So the only reason that Boulder took action against Sergeant Mecca was because his misconduct was reported by the Longmont police, who observed it in horror.
