Rochford, 592 F.2d 381 (7th Cir.1979), was the one and only case in all American jurisprudence holding--even inferentially--that an arresting officer owed a duty to passengers (children) in a car "to conduct an arrest in such a manner that the children's interest in personal security was not infringed."
