"Alabama Police Officer Disciplined for Arresting Woman Over ID Refusal"

An Alabama police officer was disciplined for arresting a woman at her home after she refused to show her ID during a noise complaint incident. The entire Andalusia Police Department will receive additional training in city ordinances and constitutional and state law. The woman, Twyla Stallworth, had called the police due to a noise complaint from her neighbors. The officer, John G. Barton, arrested Stallworth, who is Black, but not her white neighbors, leading to allegations of racial discrimination. The charges against Stallworth have been dropped, and she is considering legal action against the city and its police department.
