NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Video of the violent arrest of a young mother in Brooklyn is just one of several incidents over the past week weighing on the nation’s largest police force.

Is it just a string of bad luck? Or rather systematic problems finally coming to light for the NYPD?

Police brass can no longer bar officers accused of misconduct from earning overtime, the Daily News has learned.

An arbitration board has reversed the NYPD’s order that cops who have been stripped of their guns and shields and assigned to desk duty as they face internal disciplinary action are not eligible for overtime unless no one else is available to do their assignment.

Charges will be dropped against the mother whose 1-year-old son was forcefully yanked away by New York Police Department officers last week, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said in a statement on Tuesday.

Jazmine Headley, 23, was arrested Friday at a Brooklyn social services office and faced four charges, including resisting arrest and acting in a manner injurious to a child.

The latest legal effort by civil rights advocates to force the New York Police Department to make disciplinary records of police officers public failed on Tuesday in the state’s highest court.

The Court of Appeals ruled that the State Civil Rights Law, as it stands now, still allows the department to withhold certain records of misconduct to protect individual officers involved.

A distressing video shows officers trying to pull a baby from its mother during her arrest. Police are investigating the incident.

The New York Police Department said a "troubling" video showing officers trying to pry a 1-year-old from his mother's arms at a Brooklyn social services office is under review.

"They're hurting my son! They're hurting my son," the woman, Jazmine Headley, is heard screaming in the video posted Friday on Facebook.

The head of the NYPD’s sergeants’ union on Sunday blasted the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights charity for bailing out hundreds of accused criminals — many with histories of violence.

“It’s lunacy,” Sergeants Benevolent Association President Ed Mullins said on AM 970’s John Catsimatidis’ “The Cats Roundtable” radio show. “They are beginning to develop a history of posting bail for individuals who are not returning to court, who have a history of crimes.”

The foundation spent $1.2 million to bail out 105 women and teens from Rikers Island in October — despite their criminal histories or charges the faced.

Drones are coming to New York City, and that should worry you. 

So argues the New York Civil Liberties Union, which in a Dec. 7 statement blasts the forthcoming NYPD deployment of the flying surveillance bots as "a serious threat to privacy." The 14 police drones, which the New York Times reports had been acquired by city police in June, are ostensibly to be used for tasks like keeping an eye on large crowds or hostage situations. However, critics see the deployment as the start of a very slippery, privacy-eroding slope. 

After all, large crowds of people often gather together to lawfully protest something like, say, police brutality. Or, as the NYPD specifically notes as a drone-appropriate example (according to the NYCLU), the Women's March. 

KINGSBRIDGE - Deadly crime has more than doubled within the 50th Precinct over the last year, according to the NYPD.

The department says it has seen seven homicides in 2018 so far, compared to three in 2017.

Even though the territories held by extremist groups like al Qaeda and ISIS have been eroded, the groups' global propaganda reach is still proving to be an effective recruitment tool, inspiring uncomplicated but deadly terror attacks on U.S. soil, according to the head of the New York Police Department's Intelligence and Counterterrorism bureaus.

"[T]he unintended consequence of our effectively smashing ISIS and al-Qaeda – the pieces scattered," said Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller in a recent interview with Intelligence Matters host and CBS News senior national security contributor Michael Morell.

The NYPD is buzzing about it’s new fleet of drones — but not all of the buzz is good.

The department announced Tuesday that it has acquired 14 drones that will be soon be deployed across the city during emergencies, officials said.

The NYPD’s Technical Assistance and Response Unit will be utilizing the drones to assist in rescue missions, inaccessible crime scenes and hostage situations.

“As the largest municipal police department in the United States, the NYPD must always be willing to leverage the benefits of new and always-improving technology,” NYPD Commissioner James O’Neill said in a statement. “Our new (unmanned aircraft system) program is part of this evolution.”

The NYPD enjoyed a November to remember as monthly crime figures indicated that 2018 could set a record low for crimes in a calendar year.

The safest November in modern NYPD history ended last week with a 5% overall decrease in crime compared with November 2017. Police said the drop was spurred by a 15.8% drop in burglaries and an 11.8% plunge in robberies.

“The NYPD has once again done what a lot of people said was impossible,” said Mayor de Blasio. “(Last year) was a record year for lower crime — and the NYPD is starting to surpass that record.”

Critics of the NYPD’s handling of disciplinary cases want a panel reviewing the system to give the task to an outside agency.

But moving NYPD administrative trials to the Office of Trials and Hearings — which conducts hearings for all city workers except police officers and teachers — would face multiple hurdles, including either a legal change, or deputizing the agency’s judge to preside over NYPD trials.

And it’d likely spark stiff opposition from the city’s biggest police union, the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, whose president, Pat Lynch, defends police administrative judges as the best arbiters of NYPD rules and practices.

Hundreds of crimes occurred in and around a handful of stops last year, a recent report shows.

NEW YORK — Riding the subway can often be a pain, but certain stops can be downright dangerous. A handful of the city's bustling transit hubs saw hundreds of crimes last year, a recent report shows.

The Auto Insurance Center used publicly available 2017 crime data to create a list of the city's most crime-ridden subway stops and determine which offenses were most common within the transit system.

Women generally experience more forms of harassment than men and it’s costing us: Data from a new study shows that, on average, women pay more to get around New York City than men do due to safety reasons. Looks like there’s a Pink Tax on transportation, too.

A new study from the New York University Rudin Center for Transportation suggests that the median extra transportation cost per month for women, due to safety reasons, is between $26 to $50.

'It All Has To Stop': Mayor De Blasio, NYPD Commissioner O'Neill Discuss Rash Of Attacks That Have Rocked Jewish, Black Communities

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The NYPD released its latest crime statistics on Wednesday, and they show a disturbing increase.

While overall crime is down, the department says bias attacks are on the rise.

Murders, rapes and the Manhattan crime rate are up, the NYPD revealed on Wednesday.

At the same time, however, fewer people have been shot this year citywide and the crime rate for the city — comprised of rapes, murders and five other major crimes — is down 1%.

The close of the third quarter saw homicides in New York City spike by six percent over the same period last year, despite a relatively safe summer and a small drop in overall serious crime from 2017, according to the latest NYPD statistics.   

Homicides through Sept. 30 totaled 228 compared to 215 in the same period for 2017, a year that ended with 292 homicide and manslaughter cases — a record low for killings in the modern era of police record keeping.

Fifteen percent more uniformed officers will start patrolling trains and subway platforms.

They're expanding policing to four transit districts and eventually to all 12 districts by 2019."

— Wall Street Journal: Politicians and advocates in major cities are scrutinizing police departments for the way they label and track suspected gang members, saying the methods lack oversight and unfairly expose minorities to the criminal justice system.

Police departments in Los Angeles, New York and Chicago use databases that include thousands of people, mostly minorities, some of whom haven’t been arrested for a crime.

More than a half-dozen Trinitarios gang members went berserk in a city jail on Saturday, smashing windows and toppling furniture after one of them learned a friend would be moved to another facility, sources told The Post.

The mini-riot — on the 800-bed Vernon C. Bain Center jail barge — was so violent that a correction officer tried to break it up using pepper spray, but wound up fleeing for her life, the sources said.

“Like all successful politicians, Mayor Bill de Blasio knows how to present bad news as good news. To aide him, he has enablers at the NYPD.”

THREE WEEKS INTO his new job as commanding officer of Manhattan’s 20th precinct, Captain Timothy J. Malin stared at a map on his computer screen, puzzled. It showed his jurisdiction carved up by streets and parks, with the southern edge encased in an ominous shade of red.

For decades, the New York Police Department has used real-time statistics to chart spikes in violence and calibrate police activity across the city. This map, however, displayed not crime data but something new in the arsenal of police metrics: public approval. The crimson on Malin’s map indicated that some residents in his precinct, the Upper West Side—one of New York City’s wealthiest and safest neighborhoods—reported feeling little trust in his officers. It was Malin’s job to figure out why. “I look at that, and I am like, ‘Okay? What’s causing this?’” he said.

The NYPD and Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance’s office are locked in a bitter standoff over what information cops will turn over to prosecutors, and when and how that handoff happens.

The DA wants systematic electronic access to police disciplinary records and investigative files, including witness reports, to understand cases’ strengths and weaknesses, drop charges when appropriate, and, when the law requires, share evidence with defense attorneys. The police say they’re already being perfectly responsive, and claim Vance is overreaching dangerously by trying to get an unfiltered pipeline into the most sensitive files.

An unarmed black man holding a cellphone, Stephon Clark, is fatally shot in his grandmother’s backyard in Sacramento and residents ask whether the officers only saw race when pulling their triggers 20 times.

Saheed Vassell, a mentally ill black man waving a pistol-shaped metal car part at pedestrians, is gunned down by police officers on a street in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, and the outrage focuses on whether deep-seated prejudices fueled the quick use of deadly force.

Two black men are led in handcuffs from a Starbucks in Philadelphia and alarm bells go off: Had the officers unconsciously adopted the racial bias of the store employee who called the police?

While explicit bias remains part of the fabric of life in the United States, elected leaders and chiefs of police have increasingly focused on what is often called implicit bias, inherently unintentional yet more pervasive.

Ever wonder why Bryant Park and Union Square are junkie-free but not always Washington Square Park?

That’s because New York University, which owns most of the buildings surrounding the park, has a love/hate relationship with the community.

We sure hope the whiplash didn't hurt state Sen. Marty Golden too much.

Golden — a Brooklyn Republican whose political shenanigans at the end of session in Albany last month helped deep-six widely supported plans to reup, much less expand, life-saving speed cameras on city streets — succumbed to political pressure Wednesday, finally urging Senate leader John Flanagan to convene a special session to right the wrong before the cams go dark July 25

An 8 percent jump in homicides citywide is troubling; more worrisome is that it’s driven by a nearly 65 percent spike in the Bronx. We trust the NYPD to turn the numbers around — but can only hope it will have the full support of local politicians.

To be fair, the percentage increase is so big mostly because New York’s Finest have brought crime so far down over the last quarter-century: The 51 homicides in the Bronx in the first six months of the year is up just 20 over the same period in 2017.

Mayor de Blasio attended a police-statistics briefing Tuesday detailing the city’s gang-driven murder spike, and invited two fellow pols — who blindsided the NYPD’s top cop with gripes about crime in their districts.

Just as Police Commissioner James O’Neill opened up to media questions about his department’s latest stats — including an 8.1 percent rise in slayings — de Blasio interrupted to turn the mic over to his guests.

Gothamist: “While the city's overall crime rate continues to drop, the first six months of this year saw a spike in the number of rapes and murders, the NYPD announced on Tuesday.”

Wall Street Journal: “Murders and rapes have increased in New York City so far this year, even as overall crime continues to fall to historic lows, the NYPD said Tuesday.”

New York Post: “The NYPD on Tuesday defended their use of a $3 million counterterrorism plane to shuttle Mayor Bill de Blasio back and forth between the city and his Canadian vacation. “

New York Post: The NYPD told Bronx precinct bosses to make sure there are no prisoners in their station house for Mayor de Blasio's Tuesday press ...

NY Post: “New York started following San Francisco’s lead in 2016 when Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr. announced his office would no longer be prosecuting offenses such as public urination. Both cities have accepted that they’ll continue to have a large number of people living on their streets and inevitably using their sidewalks as a toilet.”

NY Daily News: “A training curriculum could turn witnesses to crimes into proactive good Samaritans, a Bronx City Council member proposed Monday in the wake of allegations that bodega workers didn’t do enough to help a teen who was dragged from their store and fatally stabbed.”

NY Daily News: “Gang violence is ugly in any form, but the killing of Lesandro “Junior” Guzman-Feliz was an unspeakably savage act. The images of him being dragged from a store and then repeatedly stabbed and hacked are the definition of horror. The depraved indifference to this boy’s life is made all the worse in that the child who the gang was destroying wasn’t even their intended target.”

NY Post: “The Bronx teen who became a cause célèbre for bail reform has been arrested — for the 12th time — for driving offenses, sources told The Post on Monday. Pedro Hernandez was nabbed Sunday night at Jerome Avenue and 170th Street in the Bronx for weaving in and out of traffic, sources said.”

NY Post: “NYPD Commissioner James O’Neill called on Bronx residents to help clear the borough’s streets of bloodthirsty gangbangers — like the Trinitarios thugs behind the “unspeakable” murder of young Lesandro Guzman-Feliz.”

NY Daily News: “Let there be no misunderstanding, now that young Lesandro Guzman-Feliz lies in the earth, the blood let from his neck like an animal: The slaughter of a promising 15-year-old Bronx boy known as Junior at the hands of criminal gang members who mistook him for their intended target cannot be left to melt in the heat of passions over the proper reach of the criminal justice system into the lives of young men of color.”

NY Post: “One of the most scrutinized police forces in America — the NYPD — is facing yet more oversight: An outside panel is launching a 120-day review of the department’s discipline policies. This time, for a change, it’s warranted.”

NY Post: “Murders in the Bronx have skyrocketed in 2018, nearly doubling compared to the same period last year, according to newly released crime statistics from the NYPD.”

WSJ: “The New York Police Department said Tuesday that its Special Victims Division will carry out all acquaintance and domestic sex-crime investigations even after an immediate arrest is made, no longer relying on precinct detectives to gather evidence and complete such investigations. The department announced the change in its response to a highly critical report by New York City’s Department of Investigation in March that accused top brass of failing to adequately staff the division.

NY Daily News: “One tragedy of the recently ended state legislative session is that New York has again failed to take action on a basic penal reform that should have been fixed decades ago: the indefensible practice of jailing people accused of minor crimes simply because they lack a few hundred dollars to make bail.”

NY Post: “The NYPD released a response to a scathing Inspector General’s report on Tuesday, stating that they were working to “strengthen and bolster” the Special Victim’s Division while taking issue with some the IGs findings.”

NY Post: “A trio of City Council members says the deli owner who didn’t intervene when gangbangers dragged an innocent teen from his deli and slaughtered him should have his store shuttered.”

AM New York: “Mayor Bill de Blasio on Tuesday signed seven bills intended to broaden access to antidotes that reverse drug overdoses and teach medics, schoolchildren and the public more about opioids. The law covers schools, homeless shelters, needle exchanges and other places where the city’s anti-opioid message can reach drug users, and prospective drug users.”

NY Daily News: “A Bronx teen whose jail horror story became the backdrop for a debate on reforming the city’s bail system will likely have a traffic case against him dismissed.

NY Daily News: “The city released thousands of pages of incident reports Friday to state overseers, documenting everything from assaults to drug dealing to arrests inside homeless shelters. The release followed a Daily News expose in May documenting how the city Department of Homeless Services had stopped reporting hundreds of arrests for a wide variety of criminal activity inside shelters across the city. That included not reporting assaults that didn’t result in visible injury.

Staten Island Advance: “A neighborhood watch group promises to transform a plagued Staten Island park into a scene from the war-torn Middle East if officials don't crack down on the blatant lawlessness.”

City Limits: “Official stop numbers have plummeted since a groundbreaking federal lawsuit in 2013 ruled the NYPD’s stop and frisk tactics unconstitutional. But those statistics only reflect the most serious type of stop. Other encounters which don’t meet the standard of a high-level stop take place without leaving a trace in the public record. While the NYPD calls such stops “low-level,” advocates say they can still leave residents feeling intimidated and targeted, such as when the officer approached Dister and his friend.”

NY Post: “Gangbangers peddle drugs in plain sight, hustlers resell cheap booze on the street corner — 50 cents will get you a capful — and prostitutes lead johns to the boarded-up husk of what used to be a Taco Bell. This is Tompkinsville Park on Staten Island’s North Shore in 2018 and, to area residents and merchants caught in its heroin- and K2-infested vortex, this is a battlefield.”

Wall Street Journal: “New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s new marijuana policy was met with a backlash from the Manhattan district attorney and advocates, who said the change wouldn’t do enough to diminish racial disparities among those who face punishment for the low-level crime.”

ABC 7 News: “New York City unveiled a major new plan concerning marijuana enforcement Tuesday. Mayor Bill de Blasio and Police Commissioner James O'Neill discussed the new policy, which for some people means they won't be arrested if they are caught with pot. It comes after critics accused the prior policy of targeting minorities and for being too harsh.

NY Daily News: “Never mind the “gang database” alarmism. That the NYPD keeps a list of members of groups thought to be involved in street crime — the better to prevent violence and catch perpetrators — should comfort New Yorkers.

ABC 7 News: “The NYPD is rolling out its plan to counter the typical summer spike in crime. "Summer All Out" is a program the NYPD launched four years ago. It calls for putting more police officers in the streets during the hottest months of the year.”

CBS 2 News: “The NYPD’s gang database is a list designed to fight gangs in the city, but some argue it’s being used to brand the innocent.”

NY Times: “By a slim margin, the New York City Council on Tuesday approved two bills requiring changes to day-to-day interactions between police officers and those they encounter on the street, measures that drew strong opposition from both criminal justice reform groups and the city’s largest officers’ union.”

NY Post: “The NYPD slammed a City Council bill that encourages citizens to sue the city when cops stop them from recording police activity or seize their recording equipment. The proposal, sponsored by Councilman Jumaane Williams (D-Brooklyn), would create a city law recognizing people’s right to record police activity and would allow them to sue for damages and attorney’s fees for interference.”

NY Times: “A new law enacted in June gave New York City police officers the discretion to issue a civil summons, rather than a criminal one, for offenses such as public urination and public drinking. It appears that many officers have opted to do neither.”
