COURTHOUSE,
Jan 30 – Brian Harris, an NYC
Sanitation worker, rushed to
Mount Sinai Morningside
Hospital on September, 2020
after hearing his son had been
shot and taken there in
Harris' car.
When he got to
the front of the hospital, his
car was in the street with its
door open, and blood inside.
He asked
the NYPD officers if he could
move it. Instead, he got
tazed. He sued.
On January
30, 2024 Harris was on the
witness stand at trial. Inner
City Press was there.
U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Lorna G. Schofield, who only
the day before had released a
defendant on stalking charges
with the victim impact
statement still entirely
sealed, asked Harris how long
he had been off work. More
than a week, he said.
The case is
Harris v. City of New York, et
al., 20-cv-10864 (Schofield)
