'I was wondering why is he stopping me?' the man told BuzzFeed News. 'And then I thought, 'Okay, here we go, racial profiling.''
After a black man was handcuffed by police while moving into his own home in August, the ACLU is now calling upon the Kansas Attorney General to investigate.
"I just bought this house," Robinson told the officer, according to body cam footage viewed by BuzzFeed News.In an interview with BuzzFeed News, Robinson said his back had been turned when the cop approached him and he didn't initially realize who was behind him. Adams said this was being done because there had been a string of break-ins in the neighborhood. However, Robinson said neighbors later told him they were unaware of any recent burglaries in the area.
In October, Robinson attempted to file a written complaint about the detainment and the"ensuing weeks of police surveillance." Instead, the police chief met with him in person and did not allow him to submit a complaint, he said.
