Queens Attempted Cop-Killer Sentenced to 28 Years

“This sentence sends the message we desperately need. Anyone who attacks a New York City police officer should expect swift justice and a very long stay in prison. However, taking one attempted cop-killer off the streets is not enough to stop the epidemic of assaults on our members. We need that message to be repeated again and again, in every case and every courthouse in this city.”

PBA statement on new Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch

“Through the numerous recent changes in the NYPD’s leadership, the challenges confronting police officers on the street have remained the same. We are critically understaffed, massively overworked and completely unsupported by a justice system and an oversight regime that care more about punishing cops than helping us get dangerous criminals off the streets. We hope to partner with Commissioner Tisch to make real progress on these issues as quickly as possible. The future of the NYPD and the entire city depends on it.”

Activists target Brooklyn home of NYPD cop they say aggressively handled protest

The PBA president is quoted in the Daily News: “This episode is just further proof that these anti-police activists aren’t actually interested in ‘justice’ or ‘accountability’ — they are trying to stop police officers from doing our job by targeting us for harassment or worse.” The union wants to make sure “those who terrorized our brother and his family are brought to justice,” Hendry added.

PBA statement on video on 73 Precinct incident

“The video clearly shows that this individual repeatedly brandished a deadly knife on the subway, threatened to kill our police officers and then lunged at them with that knife. His actions put our police officers and everyone in that subway station in a horrible, dangerous situation. He is solely responsible for all the harm caused in this incident. Our hearts go out to the injured civilians and their families. This dangerous career criminal needs to be held accountable for all the pain he has caused.”
