Plaintiffs Marc and Tyrone Stephens filed a $76 Million lawsuit against the City of Englewood, Englewood Police Department, and several detectives for false arrest.

On October 31, 2012, at 10pm, three victims were brutally beaten inside the parking lot of a 7-eleven convenient store in Englewood, New Jersey by a suspect wearing a ski-mask, black jacket, and riding a bike. The attack was witnessed by Natalia Cortes of Englewood. 

During a probable cause hearing Det. Marc McDonald testified that the ‘victims stated’ they were attacked on “October 31, 2012”, at “10pm”.

Marc McDonald also testified that Tyrone Stephens gave a sworn statement that he was in front of “McDonalds” on palisades Avenue at “10pm” and greeted Det. Nathaniel Kinlaw and officer Ron.  

The officers at the Englewood Police Department knew Tyrone was in front of McDonalds at 10pm and still filed seven (7) false charges against him. The Bergen County Prosecutor was also trying to pin the death of one of the victims on Tyrone. It was impossible for Tyrone to be located both at McDonalds and 7-eleven at 10pm, which is almost 1 mile apart.

Marc McDonald testified in two probable cause hearings and to a grand jury that all of the victims and witness Natalia Cortes identified Tyrone Stephens as participating in the attack, and was the person wearing the ski-mask.
