NEW YORK AP – Lawyers for three Brooklyn policemen accused of sodomizing a drug suspect with a baton and covering it up worked methodically to discredit the case against their clients Tuesday, setting the cops against the alleged victim.
Officer Richard Kern has pleaded not guilty to aggravated sexual abuse and assault. The drug suspect, Michael Mineo, claims he was chased into a subway station and sodomized with a police baton on Oct. 15, 2008, after he ran from cops because he had no ID, was smoking pot and didn’t want to go to jail.
