According to the Miami Herald, Safiya Satchell was sitting in her Mercedes SUV when she was approached by an off duty police officer who was working as security for a strip club in the immediate proximity of the incident, which occurred on Jan. 14.

Now fired police officer Jordy Yanes Martel, who is Hispanic, was called to the scene by the manager to cite Satchell with trespassing charges so she would not be allowed to reenter the club.

Martel asked Satchell for her ID, then told her to exit the vehicle and follow him to his car so that he could read the citation.

“As a result of Martel’s actions, Ms. Satchell suffered abrasions to her stomach from the Tasers, bruises and abrasions on her arms and bruises on her legs,” Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernández Rundle said Thursday afternoon.

“By filing these criminal charges today against former Miami Gardens officer Jordy Yanes Martel, we are saying that these actions are just plain wrong.”
