VIDEO: Eagle legal editor discusses NYPD chokeholds
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle‘s legal editor, Charisma L. Troiano, sits down with state Assemblymember Joe Lentol (D-North Brooklyn) and Professor Maria (Maki) Haberfeld, chair of the Deptartment of Law and Police Science at John Jay College, to discuss the recent NYPD-IG chokehold report. With chokeholds banned as a police take-down measure since 1993, why is it that they are being used on a frequent basis? And how can it be ensured that officers are disciplined when found in violation of the chokehold ban?
