Multiple suspects in custody for dousing NYPD cops with water
NY Post ^ | 07/24/19 | Larry Celona, Stephanie Pagones and Natalie Misumeci

The NYPD has busted three men, including a reputed Crips gang member on probation, in connection with the caught-on-video water-dousing of cops in Harlem and Brooklyn, law enforcement sources told The Post Wednesday.

Gangbanger Courtney “Killer Court” Thompson, 28, of the Crips subset “Fresh Gangstas” surrendered Wednesday morning at the 73rd Precinct stationhouse for his alleged involvement in the Brownsville water drenching incident, sources said.

Thompson, a Brownsville resident, was hit with charges of obstruction of governmental administration, criminal nuisance, criminal tampering, disorderly conduct and harassment, police said.

He has more than 20 prior arrests on his record, including for assault, said sources, who noted that most of the busts are sealed.

Thompson has been on probation since 2018 in connection to a 2015 robbery busy, according to sources.

NYPD Chief of Department Terence Monahan tweeted about Wednesday’s arrest, but did not name the suspect.

“Actions like we’ve seen in videos recently will NEVER be tolerated in this city. YOU WILL BE ARRESTED,” Monahan said in the tweet.

NYPD Chief of Detectives Dermot Shea also tweeted about the arrest, and included a screenshot of the suspect showing him tossing a blue bucket of water on a cop.

Two other suspects were taken into custody at the 28th Precinct stationhouse Wednesday in connection to a similar incident in Harlem where uniformed officers were captured on video getting soaked with buckets of water while making an arrest, sources said.

I don’t see assaulting a police officer listed as a charge.

Why is that not a charge?

They wait until it gets more serious.
Like maybe a rhubarb pie.

Water is too minor a misdemeanor.

I wonder if 3 men would be arrested and tried for assault if they threw water on me?

I think that means that in 2015 he was busy doing robberies.

These scum will serve several, perhaps many days in a jail! Or, at least a hard core work release sentence of many days.

Justice may not be swift or sure, or anything, but finger wagging is absolutely assured when dealing with the law.

Let that be a lesson to everyone...amen....

Media will have to settle for photos of him distributing food to hungry poor people.

He was turning his life around according to his mom--with tears in her eyes.

He was arrested for robbing a guy getting busy? That’s pretty foul...

There is no honor among thongs.

Did you ken this?

“He has more than 20 prior arrests on his record, including for assault, said sources, who noted that most of the busts are sealed.”

Why would most of the records be sealed?
America, what a country.
