Some Good News Today
At least one rapist cop goin' to jail.
But Supreme Court Justice Gregory Carro told Moreno on Monday he considered his testimony at trial "incredible."
"By your own admission, while you were supposed to be performing your duty, you were in bed with an intoxicated and naked young female," he said.
"You wanted to get into that apartment so badly you committed a crime in order to do so."
And more:
Moreno still faces heroin possession charges for drugs that were allegedly found in his police locker following his arrest. Moreno is expected back in court Sept. 12 when a trial date for those charges could be set.
Class act, huh? Rape AND drug possession? New York's finest! Oh wait--not anymore, because the NYPD fired his sorry rapist ass and that of his shit partner (who faces sentencing later today).
And another article.
It's not enough. But it's something. I hope this guy gets everything he deserves in prison.
Edited to add:
Another update. What's fascinating is that the judge's words make it completely clear he strongly disagrees with the verdict--he's essentially calling the cop a rapist and a perjurer without coming right out and using the word.
