What makes you think so? These guys will walk with a slap on the wrist and they'll move on to some small town police force and just get on with their lives. Show me the last time you saw an LEO go behind bars for this?

I'd put major cash on them never seeing a day in jail, or even being prosecuted.

This next line tells the whole story, disgusting as it is... "The NYPD is investigating the officers involved in this incident. Two of the officers are reportedly on modified duty."

Modified Duty? and only two of them? Four officers swore to the buy that never happened. Four officers should be behind bars with a girlfriend named Bubba.

Yup. What this tells you is that the entire organization is irredeemably rotten to the core.

The sad thing is that you'll find plenty of folks here who will reflexively defend these scum with badges.

if true, these guys will do time. prosecutors go after cops big time. it is a badge of honor for them. especially here.

but you can't fire these guys without due process. the city already has to pay the 2 guys who were arrested. they don't want the cops able to sue them too because the city violated the cops rights. it's in our contract how these situations are to be handled.
