The #NYPD Is Teaching America How to Track Everyone Every Day Forever
Wherever you go in #NYC, there’s a good chance the #police are #tracking you. Enter the subway system, for instance, & your #identity, #banking information & #location trickle into city databases.
Walk down the street & you’re likely to be recorded by one of thousands of security cameras, some belonging to the NYPD, others connected or available to the dept's databases.

Karma is something. It’s been exactly 35 years since five boys were arrested for things they did not do, then held for a vicious attack they did not commit. The evil thug who put out this 1989 ad against the five boys (now Exonerated Five) is NOW in a NYC courtroom ON TRIAL. #nyc #centralpark #exoneratedfive #Mastodon #BlackMastodon
The video I filmed of an ICE agent shoving a woman to the ground at 26 Federal Plaza, a New York City immigration courthouse, went viral.
Then, in a rare move, the government publicly reprimanded the officer, calling his actions “unacceptable.”

#NYC Mayor #EricAdams announced Sunday that he is ending his campaign for #reelection.
In a video released on social media, Adams spoke with pride about his achievements as mayor, including a drop in violent crime. But he said that “constant media speculation” about his future & a decision by the city’s campaign finance board to withhold public #funding from his reelection effort, made it impossible to stay in the race.
The beauty of this year’s Cherry blossoms are gone but the memory is strong

They Were Choked, Beaten and Tased by #NYPD Officers. The Commissioner Buried Their Cases.
==
New York City’s #Police Commissioner Edward Caban has repeatedly used a little-known authority called “retention” to prevent officers accused of misconduct from facing public disciplinary trials.
Victims are never told their cases have been buried.

The #NYPD Is Tossing Out Hundreds of Misconduct Cases — Including Stop-and-Frisks — Without Even Looking at Them
==
The department has killed more than 400 cases of alleged misconduct this year that an oversight board had investigated and substantiated.
It’s part of a lax attitude toward discipline under the current #police commissioner, Edward Caban, critics say.

A trial has begun in the case of a former U.S. Marine who is accused of putting a homeless man in a fatal chokehold on a New York City subway train.
@BBCNews reports: "Daniel Penny, 25, has pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree manslaughter and negligent homicide. ... The May 2023 event quickly became a political flashpoint, with conservatives praising Mr. Penny as a hero, and critics including civil rights activists saying he acted as an unjustified vigilante."
We said we would show you all first here on Mastodon: our next cover. It’s not even on our website yet!

Judge in #EricAdams Case Appoints Lawyer to Argue Against Dropping of Charges
Judge Dale E. Ho said that with #NYC’s mayor & federal prosecutors agreeing to end the case, he needed to hear #independent arguments.

Neither circumstances nor weather, she determined, would decide either the course or the mood of her day.
If it were rainy, she had an umbrella; and if it were sunny, she had a parasol.
Either way, she knew that this was going to be a great day.

At 35th Street now- good God, there are a ton of people here. We still have thirteen more blocks to go 😳
The real victims of #EricAdams #NYC #corrupt #bargain might go to #Gitmo.
We aren’t talking enough about the real victims in the shocking quid pro quo that’s likely to end the #criminal case against New York’s corrupt Mayor Eric Adams. His promise to allow President #Trump #immigration #cops free rein in America’s largest city is #terrorizing essential New Yorkers that their mayor should be protecting. https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/commentary/eric-adams-justice-ice-raids-20250216.html?int_promo=newsletter#democracy #ruleofaw #AttorneyGeneral #maga #corruption #legalresearch
