Bronx Man Falsely Arrested on Phony Prescription Drug Charge

A few months ago, our civil rights law firm had a few cases come in in succession, all in the Bronx, of people being falsely arrested for walking out of pharmacies with their own prescriptions. Aparentemente, Bronx cops are under pressure to make prescription drug arrests, and are staking out Duane-Reade and CVS stores in the Bronx then stopping and frisking customers as they leave the store.

Usually, after the typical police harassment and over-aggressiveness, the stop ends without arrest or brutality. Of course, such a stop and frisk is still a civil rights violation. Walking out of a pharmacy does not constitute reasonable suspicion of a crime, so the police can’t legally make the stop (not that legality is much of a deterrent to police misconduct)!

Our civil rights firm did get one case, however, that resulted in an arrest and about 30 hours of incarceration.

Thankfully, the case was thrown out as soon as they appeared in the courtroom. a pesar de eso, two middle aged guys spent 30 hours in jail for no reason. jugar al póquer ivermectina para candida And the two cops? What do they care. Police supervisors only count arrests, they don’t count how many are actually convicted, and they certainly don’t count how many citizens’ rights were violated.
