The culture of New York City cops looking out for their friends, family, and VIPs recently got seventeen officers indicted, and the ugly press isn’t done yet: A 50-year-old Bronx day laborer was beaten outside of a paint store over a parking spot, but a quick call from the attacker to his police buddy allegedly prevented an arrest from occurring. “What he did to me was wrong,” said the victim. “What the cops did in not arresting him is worse.” [NYP]
