The motion was granted and the cases dating back to 1975 were dropped.

Cops need a pay raise, so they will re-open the brothels on 42nd street and make regular payoffs to the precinct.

Soon all malum in se crimes will be decriminalized, freeing law enforcement to pursue malum prohibitum thought-crimes full-time.
