"Bad Cops, Bad Cops" (statewide criminal probe of New York State Police launched)
Federal Review ^ | Tuesday, April 01, 2008

Posted on 04/01/2008 1:29:22 PM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

Today's New York Post reports that new Governor David Paterson has authorized Attorney General Andrew Cuomo to launch a criminal probe into the New York State Police.

The allegations to be investigated include illegal leaks of information statewide, politically motivated investigations and looking the other way while former Governor Eliot Spitzer repeatedly patronized high priced prostitutes.

If this is how the state's police operate, no wonder Hillary has expressed interest in running for governor if her presidential bid fails.

If it’s deflection, its a bad way to go about it. Cuomo has every reason to ride a scandal all the way to the governor’s mansion in 2010. I could very easily see him doing to the NYSP what Eliot did to Wall Street to make a name for himself.

I’m sure the New York State Police could use a large inspection. Would probably do the agency some good.
As for Little Andy Cuomo riding anything to the govs. seat?
Everyone knows he’s a punk.

Like the police state proponents always say, if you have nothing to hide, you won't mind my gorilla sized hands during your anal cavity search.

They’ll be rooting out and firing cops that privately own firearms, or those general men and women who won’t adopt the JBT mentality; initiate a takeover of NYC in the vein of ‘Empire’ by Orson Scott Card.
