The @ManhattanDA charged this man being punched in the face with violent felony assault on the cop. The claimed injury was the *swelling to cop’s fist.* Read that again. Take it in. Then read this: This happens routinely. Prosecutors are shameless enablers of police violence. https://twitter.com/rosagoldensohn/status/1283374981704044545">https://twitter.com/rosagolde...
Taxpayers are paying NYPD $494 million this year to police transit. That money could instead pay rent for every single one of the 14,000 homeless families living in NYC for a full year at the median rent for NYC. And theyd still have $74 million leftover. We need to talk.
Update: Only bc Rosa wrote about this & the video came out, @ManhattanDA agreed to drop the felony assault charge. But he still won’t drop “resisting arrest.” Cy Vance can’t help himself. Even when the spotlight on his injustice is in sharp focus. https://twitter.com/rosagoldensohn/status/1283484781003628544?s=21">https://twitter.com/rosagolde... https://twitter.com/rosagoldensohn/status/1283484781003628544">https://twitter.com/rosagolde...
