Further details on conclusions.
On May 27, 2015 at approximately 11:20 p.m., PO Richard Browne and PO [redacted] of the 120th Precinct removed [redacted] from a city bus at Richmond Terrace and Lafayette Avenue in Staten Island after receiving a report of her disruptive behavior on the bus. (Ms. [redacted] stated that a female officer was with PO Browne and PO [redacted], the investigation found no evidence of this.) After removing her from the bus, PO [redacted] allegedly opened Ms. [redacted]'s bag, removed an unopened vodka bottle, and threw it on the ground, smashing it (Allegations A and B). The officers handcuffed Ms. [redacted], and PO [redacted] allegedly pushed her to the ground (Allegation C). Ms. [redacted] repeatedly tried to stand up, and PO Browne pushed her to the ground each time, while saying, "Shut up. You want to go to jail, or you want to go to the psych ward?" (Allegation D and E). PO [redacted] eventually grabbed Ms. [redacted] by the bicep and "yanked" her off the ground (Allegation C, cont.). An ambulance arrived and the officers "threw" her inside (Allegation C and D, cont.). PO Browne and the reported female officer rode in the ambulance with Ms. [redacted], while PO [redacted] took the police car. During the ride, PO Browne searched both of Ms. [redacted]'s bags (Allegation F), with assistance from the reported female officer. The female officer saw Ms. [redacted]'s psychiatric medicine in the bag and allegedly said, "Oh, you're on the psych meds, huh? Did you take your pills today? Is that what made you go crazy?" (Allegation G). The officers left shortly after the ambulance arrived at Richmond University Medical Center (RUMC), where Ms. [redacted] was treated for alcohol intoxication (see Medical Records Folder). She was discharged at 2:01 a.m. She was not arrested or given a summons. Ms. [redacted] alleged that she received a bruised left bicep and scrapes on her fingers and knees from this incident. She was not treated for these injuries at RUMC, but later saw her own doctor for treatment. Read report for details.
