  • OAG Hearing on Interactions Between NYPD and the General Public Submitted Written Testimony
    OAG Hearing on Interactions Between NYPD and the General Public Submitted Written Testimony Tahanie Aboushi | New York, New York I am counsel for Dounya Zayer, the protestor who was violently shoved by officer D’Andraia and observed by Commander Edelman. I would like to appear with Dounya to testify at this hearing and I will submit written testimony at a later time but well before the June 15th deadline. Thank you. Marissa Abrahams | South Beach Psychiatric Center | Brooklyn, New York As a nurse, it has been disturbing to see first-hand how few NYPD officers (present en masse at ALL peaceful protests) are wearing the face masks that we know are preventing the spread of COVID-19. Demonstrators are taking this extremely seriously and I saw NYPD literally laugh in the face of a protester who asked why they do not. It is negligent and a blatant provocation -especially in the context of the over-policing of Black and Latinx communities for social distancing violations. The complete disregard of the NYPD for the safety of the people they purportedly protect and serve, the active attacks with tear gas and pepper spray in the midst of a respiratory pandemic, is appalling and unacceptable. Aaron Abrams | Brooklyn, New York I will try to keep these testimonies as precise as possible since I know your office likely has hundreds, if not thousands to go through. Three separate occasions highlighted below: First Incident - May 30th - Brooklyn - peaceful protestors were walking from Prospect Park through the streets early in the day. At one point, police stopped to block the street and asked that we back up.

  • THE JENA 6 and BLACK PUNISHMENT: Law and Raw Life in the Domain of Non-Existence
    1 The Jena Six and Black Punishment: Law and Raw Life in the Domain of Nonexistence Donald F. Tibbs1 & Tryon P. Woods2 [W]e must firmly place ourselves in another space to describe our age, the age and space of raw life . It is a place where life and death are so entangled that it is no longer possible to distinguish them, or to say what is on the side of the shadow or its obverse. — Achille Mbembe INTRODUCTION The welcome sign at the entrance to Jena, Louisiana, describes it as “a nice place to call home.”3 Recent events involving its criminal justice system, however, produce a counternarrative at the intersection of race and law that refutes this slogan. Trouble in Jena arose in September 2006 over the contestation of race and space when a black student named Kenneth Purvis asked Jena High School authorities for permission to sit under the “white tree,” a de facto segregated gathering place exclusively occupied by white students during school breaks. The school principal informed Purvis that he could sit wherever he pleased, and along with two of his buddies, the young man did just that.4 The following morning, the student body arrived to find three nooses, painted black, dangling from the tree. Shortly afterwards, white District Attorney J. Walters Reed accompanied several police officers to address a Jena High School assembly. In a throwback to the days of Bull Connor, he threatened the black students for protesting and “making a fuss about this innocent prank,” claiming that he could be their “best friend or worst enemy.”5 Next he informed the black students, “With the stroke of my pen, I can make your lives disappear.”6 2 SEATTLE JOURNAL FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE Joiner provided the students with a didactic lesson in the history of race and law in America: blacks are more likely to be victimized by state violence than they are to be recipients of equal protection from the rule of law.7 The school was put on lockdown for the remainder of the week.

  • A Comparative Analysis and Case Study of How Civilian Oversight of the Police Should Function and How It Fails
    Arrested Oversight: A Comparative Analysis and Case Study of How Civilian Oversight of the Police Should Function and How it Fails BY STEPHEN CLARKE* Police misconduct is a multi-faceted problem that no city can permanently solve, but every city must struggle with. Local politicians, courts and po- lice departments generally do not do enough to punish and deter routine acts of police misconduct or to reform problematic police department poli- cies. As a result, many municipalities across America have used “civilian oversight of the police” to address the problem of police misconduct. Un- fortunately, numerous civilian oversight bodies have failed and been ab- olished while others have endured despite being roundly condemned as failures. Existing studies of civilian oversight have done little to indicate how failed civilian oversight bodies can be and should be reformed. In or- der to build a roadmap for reform, this Note details the oversight gap that civilian oversight has been used to fill and explores strengths and weak- nesses of different types of civilian oversight bodies. It then argues that New York City’s existing civilian oversight system has failed and proposes a series of reforms to improve how New York City’s civilian oversight sys- tem functions. I. INTRODUCTION Police misconduct is a persistent, multi-faceted problem that no city can permanently solve.1 Cities must constantly struggle * The author would like to thank Professor Jeffrey Fagan, Rachel Deutsch, Theo- dore Holt, Kathryn Davis, the investigators of the New York City Civilian Complaint Review Board, and the complainants whose stories inspired this work.

From Behind the Lens: Police Officer Perceptions as Body-Worn Cameras are Introduced Into the New York City Police Department Abstract In 2014, the U.S. District Court ordered the New York City Police Department (NYPD) to test the use of body-worn cameras (BWCs) after finding that their stop, question, and frisk practices violated the rights of some minority New Yorkers. The ruling in Floyd v. City of New York (2013) mandated the recording of future interactions to determine if behavior would be influenced.
