Three NYPD officers acquitted of sodomy despite testimony from transit officer!
NEW YORK - February 22, 2010 - Only three weeks ago, The New York Post reported that "the blue wall had fallen."
On February 1, the New York Daily News reported, "A nervous NYPD cop delivered damning testimony against a fellow officer Monday, telling jurors how the officer shoved a retractable baton into a suspect's backside."
"Officer Kevin Maloney's turn on the witness stand marked the most dramatic moment of the trial and the biggest blow to the defense," the Daily News added.
WABC's Tim Fleischer agreed, "Cop testifying against cops. It was a rare scene in court and by far the most damaging to at least one of the three officers on trial."
"It was pressed on Michael Mineo's left buttock," The Post reported that Maloney testified. "I saw it move from left to right . . . Yes, there was pressure being applied. It went from left to right, into Michael Mineo's butt crack."
He also reported hearing Mineo shout, "Why did you stick a walkie-talkie up my ass?" after which he heard Kern say that the perp was an "EDP" - an emotionally disturbed person.
However, over the next three weeks, as a Google news search reveals, Maloney's name all but disappeared from the daily reports on the case.
It appears that jurors may have also forgotten.
Monday morning, the Associated Press reports, "A New York City police officer accused of a sodomy attack on a drug suspect in a subway station was acquitted Monday along with two other officers who had been accused of covering it up."
"Officer Richard Kern had faced as many as 25 years in prison if convicted of aggravated sexual abuse," the AP story adds. "Officers Andrew Morales and Alex Cruz could have faced up to four years in prison on charges of hindering prosecution."
