The Brady List is a public database of information about police who have been involved in misconduct, complaints, or use-of-force incidents.

The city is reviewing the claims and has requested additional information and evidence from the state attorney's office to begin investigating the allegations. We take these allegations seriously and are committed to thoroughly examining the matter."
That same grand jury has made a presentment to KPD following the indictment of one of their officers. A presentment is a formal statement asking that a matter be handled.
The jury indicted Officer Andrew Baseggio for this incident we first reported on in 2023. Baseggio was indicted on multiple charges, including felony battery for tasing and kneeing a man in the face.

Sources told us the department did not want to do a criminal investigation on their own but did bring it to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement later after the state raised questions about the video they saw on our air. The jury in the presentment will lay out what they heard and possible recommendations to the department. We know at least a dozen people were interviewed in the proceedings, either by the jury or by state attorneys.
The presentment is sealed until the department has time to respond. It could be made public next week.
