'Cowboy cop' who planted crack under couple's car seat to boost arrest quotas escapes jail after SOBBING in court.

A veteran NYPD detective framed an innocent couple by planting crack in their car during a search.

Arbeeny was convicted of ‘flaking,’ the practice of planting drugs on blameless people to reach their quota of felony collars and claim overtime, the New York Daily News reported.

He was found guilty of putting a twist of crack under a car seat in Yvelisse DeLeon and Juan Figueroa’s car during a January 2007 bust in Coney Island, New York.

The trial which ended in October 2011 left the judge shocked at the ‘cowboy culture‘ among narcotics enforcement officers.

Supreme Court Justice Gustin Reichbach was appalled at the force’s casual attitude to arresting innocents, on the assumption that the charges would probably be dismissed.

But Arbeeny who was facing up to four years behind bars, miraculously escaped jail yesterday, after bursting into tears in court.

The police detective of 14 years broke down whimpering to Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Gustin Reichbach. that he felt ashamed and ;can’t look at myself in the mirror anymore,'

Begging shamelessly, the disgraced cop said 'Sir, I am begging you, please don't send me to jail.'

The victims, had asked Reichbach to send Arbeeny to jail.

Arbeeny was sentenced to five years’ probation and 300 hours of community service...

This dirty cop needed to be sent to jail, perhaps at least with a sentence of whatever his 'victims' would have served, if they had been found guilty. This 'community service' sentence is a joke!

Special place in Hell.

Ubermenschen protecting each other. Hopefully, the Untermenschen (that’s US!) will vote them all out this election.

Assuming there is an election, that is.

he was sooo sad....and he cried....

...because....

HE GOT CAUGHT!!!!!

no more no less.

The bible prescribes the death penalty for bearing false witness. This outrageous dirty cop should be hung by the neck until dead. If we can’t trust the LEO with all the power they are given, who can we trust? I wonder how he got caught. God bless the cop who turned him in.

P*ussy.

Everyone in prison for “drugs” is an injustice.

[mkjessup]

'Community Service' for this sad sack o' sh*t will probably consist of counseling other cops on how to more convincingly plant drugs on innocent victims or in their vehicles.

Big fat crybaby dressed like a mafia
don with his fancy freakin' watch. He
should be doing some mandatory time.

and the greater shame is that other cops don't condemn him

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

I wonder how he got caught?

They won't publicize it so the same thing doesn't happen to another "good" cop.

[Fresh Wind]

I wonder how long he would have survived if he had been sent to jail?

[SF_Redux]

why do they slander Cowboy’s ???????

[txhurl]

Look, he ‘does’ his eyebrows, too.

[Lurker]

Cops who pull this should be summarily executed.

[Ken H]

God bless the cop who turned him in.

Where are you getting that a cop turned him in?

[M-cubed]

He was just stealing some overtime from the public that supports him....

Nothing worse then a dirty cop.....

[fightinJAG]

And don’t call this cretin a cowboy! He’s nothing of the sort.

Apologies to cowboys everywhere.

[Smokin' Joe]

I wonder how long he would have survived if he had been sent to jail?

I wonder how many innocent people he sent there? Maybe he's afraid of meeting some of them on more equal grounds (no badge to hide behind).
