Ben Crump Law(NEW YORK) Music producer Derrick Harris filed a lawsuit against the City of New York and the New York Police Department alleging he was wrongfully accused of sexual assault and imprisoned for four years on Rikers Island. Harris was acquitted on some of the charges in 2015 and cleared of all charges in 2020, according to the lawsuit. The city played a role in the arrest of Derrick Harris for "a bogus rape accusation, leading to his wrongful incarceration for four years," civil rights attorney Ben Crump said at a press conference Thursday. Harris was "wrongfully and falsely accused based on police lies," he said. Crump said evidence was fabricated against Harris to keep him imprisoned in Rikers Island for four years after his arrest and prior to trial. Harris was injured during his imprisonment, including suffering a skull fracture, he said. The lawsuits also lists as defendants the police officers who arrested Harris, former New York District Attorne
