Abner Louima
Abner Louima was a man who was hurt very badly by police officers in New York City a long time ago. He was just standing outside a nightclub with his friends when the officers arrested him and hurt him a lot in a police car. When they got to the police station, other officers held him down while the first officers put something called a "plunger" in his bottom. This was really mean and hurt Abner a lot. It was also something that should never happen to anyone.
The officers who did this really bad thing were punished for what they did, because it was very wrong. People talked about it a lot and wanted justice for Abner. It was a really sad thing to happen, but it also helped other people realize that police officers have to be careful and follow the rules when they're doing their jobs.
