The investigation identified Det. Albert Romano, Det. Thomas Longa, Det. Patrick Barry, Det. Terry Avent, Det. Lenno Hendricks, and Sgt. Michael Gargan of the Emergency Services Unit and Insp. Brian Mullen, Sgt. Robert Clark, and PO Joseph Spina of the 44th Precinct as having participated in the search warrant's execution at the incident location. During the entry into [redacted] and [redacted]'s bedroom, an unidentified male officer from the Emergency Services Unit allegedly told [redacted] "Shut the fuck up, how about that" (Allegation B). After the alleged discourtesy was made against [redacted] the same unidentified male officer from the Emergency Services Unit allegedly grabbed [redacted] around his neck with one hand, pushed him towards the bedframe, handcuffed him, and pushed him onto a bed (Allegation C).
