According to the lawsuit, the list was described as unofficial and “names more than 60 cops whom the district attorney’s office avoids summoning to testify in court, due to credibility issues,”. But, Williams argues that including her name and photo is defamation of character and she suing for the damages.

Williams was arrested for firing her gun during an off-duty altercation but was later acquitted. “It lends the impression to the ordinary person that she was a corrupt police officer. That she had lied or perjured herself, which is not true,” said Williams’ lawyer, Steven F. Marino. “That’s the foundation of the suit.”

Williams is the only officer on the list taking legal action against Meek, Jay Z and Wenner Media. Do you think she has credible claims?
