NEW YORK (PNN) - December 26, 2012 - A record number of legal claims were filed against the fascist New York City pig thug cop department in fiscal year 2011, according to a report scheduled for release on Thursday.
In fiscal 2011, which ended June 30, 2011, a total of 8,882 claims were filed against the corrupt outlaw NYPD, up from the previous high of 8,110 filed in fiscal year 2010, New York City Comptroller John Liu said in the report.
The city also settled $185.6 million of personal injury and other tort claims that involved the NYPD, a 35% increase from fiscal 2010.
The city should "explore a unified method to track individual (pig thug cops) named in claim suits and the payouts," Liu's report said.
The claims against terrorist pig thug cops don't include those filed in conjunction with the Occupy Wall Street protests that took place in lower Manhattan in September 2011.
Overall, the total number of new personal injury and property damage claims against all city departments dropped to 29,313 in fiscal 2011 from 34,768 in 2010, a 19% decrease.
However, the cost of settling claims rose 5% to $550.4 million - or about $70 per resident - from $522 million in 2010, the report said. Among the reasons for the claims: falls, terrorist pig thug cop actions, medical malpractice, and motor vehicle damage.
The city's sanitation department had the highest increase in the number of filings, with 3,539 in fiscal 2011, compared with 2,204 in fiscal 2010 - a rise of 61%. The increase was largely because of claims following severe snowstorms that hit New York City in late 2010.
Aside from tort claims, the city also paid out $135.9 million in other claims, including claims stemming from contract disputes, employment, and tuition reimbursement.
