Summary

On August 28, 2019, at approximately 5:30 p.m., [redacted] was inside of his camper, which was parked southeast-bound at the dead-end of 204th Street off Jamaica Avenue in Queens. [redacted] looked through the front facing camera on his camper, and noticed two police officers, PO John Giglia and PO Timothy Slevin, both of the 103rd Precinct, approach his pickup truck, which was parked in front of his camper beside the driveway to the Safeguard Storage Facility.
[redacted] opened the door to his camper and spoke with PO Giglia and PO Slevin who told [redacted] that he could not legally park there. PO Giglia and PO Slevin advised [redacted] that they would come back in an hour to issue him summonses if he did not move his camper. PO Giglia allegedly told [redacted] that they would tow his camper if he did not move it by the time they returned (Allegation A – Abuse of Authority: Threat to seize vehicle: [redacted]).
Approximately two hours later, PO Slevin and PO Giglia returned to the dead-end of 204th Street. When they returned, [redacted]'s camper and his black truck were still parked in the same spot. PO Giglia wrote four summonses for [redacted] and allegedly threw the summonses on the floor of [redacted]'s camper (Allegation B – Abuse of Authority: Discourtesy Action: [redacted]). [redacted] was issued four summonses in relation to this incident for an unhitched trailer, for parking a commercial vehicle for more than three hours, for missing/improperly displayed plate, and for an expired registration sticker (Board Review 08).
