A Newark resident who was born male but lives as a female has filed a lawsuit against the city, claiming she was harassed and verbally abused by police because of her sexual identity.

The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit on behalf of Diana Taylor, who was born Christopher Moore.

Taylor claims two Newark police officers stopped her on March 23, 2009, and took her into custody for no reason while verbally abusing her.  The lawsuit said the officers shoved her against a fence, cuffed her roughly and detained her unfairly.
