Mother Awarded $625,000 Settlement After NYPD Rips Child From Her Arms
New York City will pay a Black mother over $600k after her 18-month-old son was forcefully pulled from her arms by officers during an incident at Brooklyn’s Human Re- sources Administration office last year.
Jazmine Headley, 23, was reportedly visiting office to apply for daycare vouchers so that she could begin working as a security guard. With no available seats in the social services office, she opted to sit on the waiting room floor with her son — and that’s when all hell broke loose.
When Headley reportedly refused to stand when security informed her that she was blocking a hallway. Cops were called and video shows they es- calated the situation by yank- ing the toddler from Headley’s arms.

Nyashia Ferguson the woman who recorded the inci- dent and posted video on social media, said the police presence only made the situation worse.
“They’re always rude,” Fer- guson told the New York Times. “They think that people
that are poor don’t have noth- ing, so you can treat them any kind of way.”
Headley was later arrested on charges of resisting arrest, committing an act in a manner injurious to a child, criminal trespass and obstruction of governmental administration.
The charges were ultimately dropped.
