A
Deutsche bank executive, who filed a multimillion dollar suit against
Los Angeles Police Department claiming that he was brutalized, was
delusional and was on “white lighting”, a type of bath salt, the LAPD is
claiming now, the KTLA reported.
THE KTLA said that the executive Brian Mulligan told the Glendale police department about his abuse of bath salts just days before he filed $ 50 million lawsuit against the department.
But Mulligan hit back stating after he was injured by two LAPD men, the department “cooked-up” stories and painted him as snarling, thrashing man who told the police officers that he had recently ingested bath salts.
But days before the May confrontation, Mulligan apparently told a Glendale police officer a similar account to what appears in the LAPD report.
He said he’d previously snorted “white lightning,” a type of bath salts, a synthetic drug, and believed that a helicopter had been trailing him, according to a Glendale police recording of the conversation.
Mulligan has already filed a $50 million lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles.
According to Mulligan, police mistook him for a suspect going berserk near a fast food restaurant in Eagle Rock on May 14.
He claims police searched him, found at least $2,500 in his car and then took him to a nearby motel.
Mulligan says he thought he had become bait in a sting operation and tried to leave and that’s when officers attacked him.
However, police say they got at least two calls that night saying a crazed man fitting Mulligan’s description was trying to break into cars at a Jack in the Box drive-through.
When officers encountered Mulligan, he allegedly told them he was high on marijuana and “White Lightning,” a bath salt, and hadn’t slept for days.
A screen for controlled substances at the scene came back negative, so police dropped Mulligan off at the motel to sleep.
Investigators say Mulligan would not follow officers’ directions and charged at one of them.
He was arrested for felony resistance of a police officer and transported to a hospital. The Los Angeles District Attorney declined to file the case.
The matter is now under review by the Los Angeles City Attorney.
