New York Citys Department of Investigation said that staff members at a Bronx public defenders organization took part in a music video advocating the killing of police officers and later attempted to mislead city officials about the organizations involvement.
The DOI said in a report released Thursday that two staff attorneys at The Bronx Defenders, a nonprofit organization that receives tens of millions in public funds to support its legal advocacy work, appeared in a music video called Hands Up, in which singers also appeared to point a gun at an individual portraying a police officer.
The report alleges serious misconduct by the two lawyers and gross mismanagement by the Bronx Defenders Executive Director, Robin Steinberg, who the report said didnt discipline the two attorneys and sent misleading letters about the video to City Hall officials.
It is clear that Bronx Defenders who knowingly participated in this despicable video calling for the murder of police officers have violated their oath as officers of the court and should be disbarred as a result, said union President Patrick Lynch.
