Galanakis posted bodycam and his own footage online (it went viral), criticized the officers, and in early 2023 sued the City of Newton, Winters, Wing, and the police chief for false arrest, Fourth Amendment violations, and related claims. The officers countersued for defamation over some of his public statements. Courts denied the officers qualified immunity (affirmed on appeal in 2025), finding no reasonable probable cause based on the bodycam evidence of his demeanor and the zero BAC.
In early June 2026, a federal jury found the officers lacked probable cause and did not act in good faith, awarding Galanakis $105,000 (including compensatory and punitive damages against Winters and Wing). Later in July 2026 the city approved payment of about $95,000 to him plus roughly $236,000 in attorney fees (over $331,000 total), effectively resolving the case.
