“Human Rights Violations! Illegal Arrest by Local Police in Mexico – Caught on Camera”
Mr. Topp’s search for his missing children in Mexico had already pushed him to his emotional limits — but what happened next would turn a desperate quest into a terrifying ordeal.
According to witness accounts and legal filings, tensions escalated the moment an allegedly false emergency call was made to the 911 service. The caller claimed that Mr. Topp had attacked and insulted his wife on a public street. However, multiple reports state that no such encounter ever occurred — in fact, the two had not even crossed paths that day.
That afternoon, Mr. Topp was quietly sitting at a marina café in Puerto Aventuras, trying to regain a sense of calm.
Then everything changed.
Armed police officers approached him without warning. Before he could understand what was happening, he was surrounded, grabbed, and pulled away from the café. According to his account, the officers gave no explanation — only orders.
When Mr. Topp asked for their names, noting that none of them were wearing name tags or identification numbers, one officer allegedly became aggressive. Mr. Topp was forcefully turned around, handcuffed, and thrown into the back of a police pickup truck. There, he was forced to lie on the floor while another officer sat over him, pointing an automatic rifle at him for the entire drive to the police station in Playa del Carmen.
According to Mr. Topp’s formal complaints, things only worsened when they arrived. He was pressured to sign documents he could not read or understand. When he refused, he alleges that the violence escalated: he was kicked while still handcuffed, threatened with weapons, and robbed of his belongings — cash, AirPods, and sunglasses.
Afterward, he was thrown into a cell.
No chance to call a lawyer.
No explanation of his rights.
No charges.
Just silence.
Fortunately, Mr. Topp’s lawyer learned of the arrest and immediately began searching for him. When he was finally released, he emerged shaken, bruised, and devastated — but determined to seek justice.
Today, Mr. Topp is pursuing legal action against the three officers involved, accusing them of illegal arrest, police brutality, theft, and serious human rights violations. He has also initiated a separate legal case against his wife, alleging that she filed a false police report, misused the emergency system, and made statements that directly led to his wrongful detention.
His legal team believes this was not random.
Not a misunderstanding.
But an attempt to intimidate him — to frighten him away from searching for his children.
