Yes,fire the cops.Charge the cops.Sue them,individually.But unless the cops have a documented history of bringing false charges against innocent people there should be **NO** lawsuits against the City or State of New York.

Any cop or DA who actually does this should serve the time the suspects would have served had they been guilty.

Dream on.
Scumbag lawyers ALWAYS go after the "deep pockets".
And, of course, it's ALWAYS the taxpayers left grabbing their ankles.

Nope, sorry.

Police are literally “officers” of the City - their direct, street-level representatives, if you will.

The City IS responsible for everything their representatives do. The cops involved should be fired and jailed, and ALL their supervisors should be terminated and pensions revoked, due to their failure to properly supervise their people.

They also need jail time for this. It has to be severe because there needs to be a huge penalty for officers that even consider doing this kind of crap. It makes everyone lose trust in the police even though most are good.

I would agree with you except for the fact that one of these 2 guys owned a convenience store and lost his business licenses as a result of this false arrest... even after the charges were dropped.

Maybe not sue the city but make the idiot bureaucrat who did that support this guy and his family for the rest of his life.

The cops need to go to prison and I am sure their fellow inmates will make their stay very comfortable.
