Public corruption charges federal indictment for 3 NYPD cops from Queens precinct

https://gothamist.com/news/three-nypd-officers-including-unabashedly-racist-cop-arrested-bribery-scheme-feds

One of the officers recently retired was unabashedly racist. Now that he was retired, he was going to transport drugs for a towing company.

NYPD seems to be filled with lawless thugs. All 3 cops reside in Nassau County. Frankly, I think that is one of the problems. Cops should live in the City if they are working here.

So it fits.

D'Amato - as a sitting US Senator - once showed up in federal court as a DEFENSE witness for a Gambino crime Capo! Who had the balls to call him! Surprised the hell out of federal prosecutors.

A long history of bribery and shakedowns, so I am not surprised by this story.
