here is video evidence that there are two sets of laws here in the empire with the one for little people not being the set for the big ones;
Buffalo, NY — Officer discretion allows cops some leeway on which they can rely as they make choices that impact the people they are policing. If they see a family who may be struggling to put food on the table, a cop can choose not to extort them for some arbitrary violation like window tint. All too often, however, cops do not use this discretion and will escalate force and kidnap people over the most mundane infractions, up to and including, improperly crossing the street. Unless of course, you are a judge.
One act of officer discretion is getting some much deserved scrutiny this week because anyone who is not a judge would have been arrested for what this man did. If the average Joe, interacting with cops, would attack one of those officers, rest assured that they would be arrested and most likely be severely beaten. That is, of course, unless you are New York State Supreme Court Judge Mark Grisanti.
Video from Grisanti’s interaction with police back in June has been released as part of a Freedom of Information Act request this week and it has civil rights groups outraged, and rightfully so.
According to WGRZ, the incident stems from a neighbor dispute earlier this summer. The dispute was over a parked vehicle that was allegedly blocking part of Grisanti’s driveway.
As the video shows, this Supreme Court judge is in a torn shirt and is irate with police. His wife is also irate and both of them appear to think they are above the law. They would both later prove this notion.
For some reason, police attempt to detain Grisanti’s wife and put her in handcuffs. However, she was not having it and began fighting back. When Grisanti saw his wife struggling with officers, he moved in and attacked one of them before being pulled off and handcuffed.........read and watch more.....
