In a Brooklyn subway station on Sunday afternoon, police shot and injured three people and a fellow New York Police Department officer over a $2.90 fare. This is what safety and security looks like in Mayor Eric Adams’s New York, where problems of poverty and hardship are met with policing and state-sanctioned violence.
At around 3 p.m. Sunday, at the Sutter Avenue stop in Brownsville, Brooklyn, a 37-year-old man allegedly evaded paying the subway fare. According to reports, two police officers pursued this man up three flights of stairs and confronted him on the station platform. Police say the man pulled out a knife. Both officers opened fire on the man, piercing him with several bullets, while also striking two bystanders; one of the officers was hit with friendly fire. One of the bystanders, a 49-year-old man, is in critical condition in the hospital from a bullet wound to the head.
How long until the whistleblowers give us the goods on Adams?
What are you talking about? There’s like at least three open FBI investigations into his administration lol.
One of his top legal advisors just resigned because he’s refusing to fire many of the people targeted by the FBI investigations.
That’s not “the goods.”
That comes out during trial, unless by whistleblower, you meant that you hope someone inside the investigation leaks details to the press? I’m not judging, just looking for clarification.
Whistleblowers come forward to trigger a response that they feel is lacking or inadequate, typically administrative, legal, or political in nature.
As there are multiple active DOJ investigations, what you have now are cooperating witnesses, and subjects with plea agreements.
Both of which include the “goods”, but neither are allowed to talk to the press.
FWIW I’m also very much looking forward to reading the accounts of the hilariously dumb acts of corruption acts these morons got up to.
I doubt very much they’ll file charges on all but slam-dunks, and may negotiate pretrial plea deals. And whistleblowers coming forth right now may very well jeopardize any pending charges, so good catch. It just bothers me that everyone affected may not see real justice, that’s all I mean.
