Spokane Valley, WA - Newly released body camera footage has become a key piece of evidence in a civil rights lawsuit against the Spokane County Sheriff's Office.

The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Joshua Clark, a resident of Spokane Valley, who claims he was wrongfully arrested in a case of mistaken identity in October 2023. The incident involved Spokane County Deputy Samuel Turner.

Documents related to the lawsuit, revealing that Deputy Turner believed he saw a man trespassing at the Hometown Studio Apartments. That man was Joshua Clark, who lives there.

When Deputy Turner asked Clark to identify himself, he reported that Clark's behavior matched that of a wanted individual avoiding capture. Despite this, Clark was arrested and charged with three felonies, including assaulting a law enforcement officer. The charges were dismissed five months later.
