At a bus stop, a man boarded and began making disparaging comments to Plaintiff, on the basis of her religious attire. Plaintiff asked him to desist, but he continued. The bus driver did nothing to stop the passenger harassing Plaintiff. The driver began screaming at Plaintiff, calling her a “maniac” and other disparaging remarks regarding her Muslim faith, and her religious garments. Driver stopped the bus and ordered Plaintiff to exit, and refused to drive further until Plaintiff exited the bus. Afraid for her safety, Plaintiff got off the bus and walked home. Before he drove away, driver called Plaintiff an insult with the f-word.\nOn May 26, 2012, Plaintiff boarded a bus on Jamaica Ave. and 191st Street, in Queens, NY. Plaintiff was again dressed in a burqa that covered her from head to toe. When Plaintiff sat down, the bus driver, Defendant Wright, repeatedly looked back at her and told her she was “scary” because of her religious attire. Wright eventually ordered Plaintiff to exit the bus.  Plaintiff refused and Wright yelled abusively at Plaintiff, making disparaging remarks about her religion. Wright stopped the bus and refused to continue driving until Plaintiff exited. Plaintiff refused to exit the bus. Several other passengers began verbally and physically harassing Plaintiff. One female passenger punched Plaintiff in the face, causing her fear, embarrassment, and physical pain. Plaintiff called 911. When the police arrived, Wright got off the bus and attempted to hide. Wright spoke with Officer Martin. Martin did not require Wright to allow Plaintiff to remain on the bus, as was her right. Martin stated that Wright had the right to make Plaintiff exit the bus, and joined the driver and passengers in insisting that Plaintiff exit the bus. Martin handed Plaintiff a bus transfer that she obtained from Wright and ordered Plaintiff to exit the bus. Plaintiff got off the bus against her will and took a car service to her destination.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.337684/gov.uscourts.nyed.337684.27.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/5684023/louis-v-metropolitan-transit-authority/"}],"discipline":[{"disposition_date":"2023-03-29","case_no":"2023-28163","recommendation":"Command Discipline - B","allegations":[{"desc":"Failed to prepare required reports."}]}],"image":"https://www.50-a.org/images/officer/BQE7-crystal-martin.jpg","payroll":{"salary":"109352","regular":"108510","overtime":"13181","other":"29828","total":"151520"},"id":"BQE7","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/BQE7"}
