SDNY 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)
