“As a result of Martel’s actions, Ms. Satchell suffered abrasions to her stomach from the Tasers, bruises and abrasions on her arms and bruises on her legs,” Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernández Rundle said. “By filing these criminal charges today against former Miami Gardens officers Jordy Yanes Martel, we are saying that these actions are just plain wrong.”

Satchell did not end up having a baby, but Forbes reports she did not lose the child as a result of the tasing.

Martel arrested Satchell on charges of battery against a cop and resisting arrest with violence.

In the arrest report, Martel claimed that Satchell closed the window on his hand and began “striking [him].” He said that Satchell then resisted arrest once she was out of the car by “tensing and kicking” and punched him in the lip purposely.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement said that Martel had “no legal authority to detain the victim.”

Defense lawyers submitted the video to Miami-Dade prosecutors weeks ago. After watching the video, investigators found that the arrest report contained false statements.

“We felt very strongly that what he wrote in his affidavit and the incident report was completely made up,” Fernández Rundle said. “We’re not always fortunate to have this kind of evidence.”

The charges against Satchell have been dropped.

“If you’re an officer that has broken policy or acted under color of law with a belief that Black lives don’t matter, you ought to be looking over your shoulder because the chickens have finally come home to roost,” her lawyer, Jonathan Jordan said. “My client deserves to witness justice be served in this prosecution against this former officer where so many others in her position have not been as fortunate.”

Martel’s defense attorney Douglas Hartman spoke out against the arrest, saying Martel was “punched in the mouth” by Satchell who was “clearly intoxicated.” He said the case is politically motivated, as Fernandez Rundle is running for reelection and has been criticized for her lack of cases against police officers’ use of force.

“It’s an overreaction. Clearly, it’s a political move by Ms. Rundle’s office,” Hartman said.

Martel, who worked as an officer for less than two years, was fired last week along with officer Javier Castano for their involvement in another rough arrest at a gas station back in March.
