Show Notes
New York Citys NYPD faced a record-breaking $117 million in lawsuits last year, with a history of misconduct cases dating back decades. The Legal Aid Society blames a culture of impunity, while NYPD leaders argue most claims are from the past. Notable settlements include a man blinded by a Taser and nine people wrongly jailed. The city comptroller suggests using the NYPDs budget to fund prevention, while the mayors office reviews lawsuits for policy improvements.
