NYPD Harrass off duty Chief

Re: Racial Profiling Gone Wrong: Bigot Cops Didn’t Recognize Off-Duty Chief

As I said....the chief got off easy:smh:

After an off-duty black police officer was shot to death in Providence, R.I., while coming to the aid of two other officers, city leaders were calling for calm yesterday and demanding a full investigation into the shooting.

The fatal shooting of the officer, Cornel Young Jr., 29, the son of the Providence police force's highest ranking black member, occurred Friday morning outside an all-night restaurant where Officer Young had been eating. After two other officers were called to break up a fight, Officer Young, who had been on the force for three years, came to their assistance with his gun drawn. He was not in uniform.

Another man, Aldrin Diaz, also had drawn a gun. When uniformed officers ordered Mr. Diaz and Officer Young to drop their weapons, Mr. Diaz complied. When Officer Young did not, the other police officers shot him.

''The two officers did not recognize Officer Young as a police officer,'' said Chief Urbano Prignano, in a statement. ''It appears at this point that Officer Young did not realize that the officers did not recognize him and were ordering him to drop his firearm.''


An officer at the police station who did not give his name said yesterday that the names of the police officers would not be released over the weekend.

But, according to an article in The Providence Journal yesterday, one of the officers shot a suspect last fall while being attacked. State prosecutors later cleared him of any wrongdoing.

''It seems to us that these African-American officers should be fully known by their fellow police officers,'' the Providence branch of the N.A.A.C.P. said in a statement.

The statement called for a grand jury inquiry into the shooting, and asked, ''Did Officer Young have the opportunity to identify himself or is there a shoot- first, ask-questions-later policy?''

As of 1996, the most recent year for which complete figures were available, members of ethnic and racial minorities made up about 36 percent of the 160,000 residents, but less than 16 percent of the police force. There are only 36 black officers on a police force of 462.

Clifford Montiero, head of the Providence branch of the N.A.A.C.P., and a former Providence police officer, said the victim's father, Maj. Cornel Young, head of the city's community policing unit and a 25-year veteran of the force, was very proud of his son.

''He introduced me to him five times -- 'Here's my son, he's a Providence policeman,' Mr. Montiero said. ''His pride was sticking out, like sunbeams.

''We lose so many to jail, and here we got somebody who took the right path, and he wasn't safe.''

Mr. Montiero described Officer Young as quiet, reserved, a graduate from the Classical High School, for college-bound students.

Joseph Almeida, a state assemblyman and former Providence police officer, said that when Officer Young came out of the restaurant: ''Some people say he identified himself. We have witnesses who say he did. Other cops say he didn't.''

Mr. Almeida said that like his father, Officer Young became involved in minority issues on the force. He worked on his own time to recruit other members of minority groups to the police force.

Both Mr. Almeida and Mr. Montiero said the officers who fired their guns are white.

''How could they not know who he is?'' Mr. Almeida said.

Mr. Diaz, 30, of Providence, was charged with murder in the shooting, under a law stating that anyone committing a crime in which someone is killed is responsible for that death.

In 1995, Officer Young worked in Pawtucket for 900 hours as a volunteer with impoverished school children, with the AmeriCorps national service program. He joined the police force the following year.

''He was a really nice kid. I have four daughters, and I would introduce him to one of my daughters,'' Mr. Almeida said. ''He was a well-liked, physically big, good looking kid. He was soft spoken, and always wanted to be a cop.''

Mr. Almeida had announced on Wednesday that he planned to introduce a bill calling for a study of racial profiling by state police during traffic stops.

Re: Racial Profiling Gone Wrong: Bigot Cops Didn’t Recognize Off-Duty Chief

Or undercover cop,Michael Cox...beaten and left for dead:smh:

Yeah,real brave men these pigs...and some of them were black.



During the immediate aftermath of his beating at the hands of fellow officers, Mike Cox's first instincts were true-blue. The severity of the thrashing notwithstanding, Mike got that it had been a terrible mistake. His family was angry, but he couldn't see making a federal case out of it. Friends from the department's gang unit came by the house the first week to check on him. He wasn't up for talking much, but he listened. He heard gossip that the brass was giving those responsible some time -- a grace period of sorts -- to come forward before any kind of intense internal probe was begun. The tidbits gave Mike the idea this was going to get settled in a way he preferred both personally and as part of the fraternity himself -- quietly and within the organization. "I felt this loyalty to police in general," he said. He was optimistic, knowing full well police officers tended to protect another suspected of misconduct. But he also believed this went beyond any unspoken code of silence. When the victim was one of your own, it was a different ballgame.

At least one cop has been disciplined for ordering the NYPD's highest-ranking uniformed black officer out of his auto while the three-star chief was off-duty and parked in Queens, the Daily News has learned.

"How you can not know or recognize a chief in a department SUV with ID around his neck, I don't know," a police source said.

Chief Douglas Zeigler, 60, head of the Community Affairs Bureau, was in his NYPD-issued vehicle near a fire hydrant when two plainclothes cops approached on May 2, sources said.

One officer walked up on each side of the SUV at 57th Ave. and Xenia St. in Corona about 7 p.m. and told the driver to roll down the heavily tinted windows, sources said.

What happened next is in dispute.

In his briefing to Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly, Zeigler said the two cops, who are white, had no legitimate reason to approach his SUV, ranking sources said.

After they ordered him to get out, one officer did not believe the NYPD identification Zeigler gave him.

The cops gave a different account:

When one officer spotted Zeigler's service weapon through the rolled-down window, he yelled "Gun!" according to sources who have spoken with the officers.

Both cops raised their weapons and ordered the driver out of the car, sources said.

Instead of saying he was an armed member of the NYPD, Zeigler shouted, "Don't you know who I am?" the sources said.

When one cop reached over to check the identification badge around Zeigler's neck, the chief pushed him away, sources said.

Only then did Zeigler tell the two officers his name and rank, those sources said.

Zeigler, in his discussions with Kelly, said the officers never yelled "Gun!" sources said.

One cop got into a heated argument with the chief even after seeing the ID, sources said.

That cop was stripped of his gun and badge and placed on modified duty last night, sources said. The status of the second officer was unclear.

The incident occurred as the NYPD is under fire for record numbers of pedestrians being stopped and frisked, the majority of them black or Hispanic. Some 145,098 people were stopped by the NYPD in the first quarter of this year.

Zeigler has headed the Community Affairs Bureau since January 2006. His wife, Neldra Zeigler, is NYPD deputy commissioner for equal employment opportunity.

It’s fairly common for New Yorkers who are stopped and frisked by the police to claim that they have been targeted, or profiled. But this time, a lot more people are listening to this claim than usual.

A Caucasian police officer has in fact been punished and pulled off active duty after he was proven to have have harassed NYPD DeputyChief Douglas Zeigler.

Zeigler is the highest-ranking African American officer in the NYPD. He says point blank that he was the victim of racial profiling.

He explains that he was parked in a department-issued SUV, but was wearing plainclothes. That’s when two lower-ranking NYPD officers approached him, according to the New York Daily News.

“In his briefing to Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly, Zeigler said the two cops, who are white, had no legitimate reason to approach his SUV, ranking sources said.

“After they ordered him to get out, one officer did not believe the NYPDidentification Zeigler gave him.”

NYPD Chief Douglas Zeigler’s account is very different than the two officers claim.

“When one officer spotted Zeigler’s service weapon through the rolled-down window, he yelled “Gun!” according to sources who have spoken with the officers, the New York DailyNews reports.

Both cops raised their weapons and ordered the driver out of the car, sources said.

Instead of saying he was an armed member of the NYPD, Zeigler shouted, “Don’t you know who I am?” the sources said.”

The two officers have been reprimanded, with the department acknowledging that this was a clear instance of racial profiling.

WCBS reports the following:

The incident was reported as police are being criticized for stopping and frisking record numbers of pedestrians — about 145,000 in the first quarter of this year. The majority of them were black or Hispanic.

The Rev. Al Sharpton, who has been leading demonstrations in the city to protest the acquittals of three police officers in the shooting death of an unarmed man as he left his bachelor party, took note of the Zeigler incident while speaking at his weekly rally in Harlem.

“You can’t make this stuff up!” he said. “The problem isn’t that they didn’t recognize him. It is that they don’t recognize our rights!”

State Senator Eric Adams commented, “something is wrong with our Police Department and their interactions with people of color.”

Do you agree that there is a systemic problem with racial profiling amongst police officers? Or was this just an isolated incident?
