More fun with the New York City Police Department. Pictured above, protesters of Mayor Bloomberg’s “Stop and Frisk” policy endure the wrath of an officer who likes pulling hair. Muslims protest NYPD surveillance, and an officer swings his baton at Occupy protesters.
Below is David Ranta, who spent 23 years in a maximum security prison after being falsely convicted of a robbery/murder. A witness who testified against him in 1990 called Ranta’s defense attorney last year to tell him that he was coached to pick Ranta from a line-up. At the time, the witness was only 13. He told the prisoner’s attorney:
“The police told me to pick the guy with the big nose.”
The now retired officer denies any wrongdoing.
