STATEMENT FROM COUNCIL MEMBER ANDY KING REGARDING TRIAL DATE SET FOR NYPD SGT WHO FATALLY SHOT BRONX WOMAN IN 2016


   “Every other year a police officer kills a black person in a black community.  I am convinced that Deborah Danner, a senior wielding a baseball bat, could have and should have been restrained, not killed.  If this individual was not a police officer, this individual would be charged with murder even if someone had a baseball bat.  Justice must prevail and these officers must go to jail. Yes, we need better training for these officers but that doesn't discount the need for real accountability,” said Council Member Andy King, 12th Council District.
