Enough is enough. What you saw today is another overreach. Cops and police union presidents would know anything about overreach, would they? overreach And imagine the gall and hypocrisy of a guy who represents an organization that's constantly going after us objecting to somebody maybe going after them for once. Instead of thinking about protecting New Yorkers, he's thinking of a ways about going after police officers. This is kind of what a crime boss looks like or a police benevolent association president. It's the same thing. And he sounds exactly like you would expect him to as he backs his fellow thin blue line crime gang members. He needs to support police officers instead of going after police officers. Enough is enough. I agree, Luigi. Enough is enough. Enough is enough. These two New York City Police Department officers right here, Michael Calegari and Ryan McLaughlin, are charged with first-degree tampering with public records, falsifying business records, tampering with physical evidence, and official misconduct. As they pulled out all the thin blue line stops to protect their fellow officer Eli Garcia, who was sloppily drunk and crashed into another vehicle with his car. In other words, they're charged with doing what most cops do every single day of their careers. Lie on reports, cover for the thin blue line gang, and attempt to evade justice under the color of law. It's almost like they're saying, "Hey, we're the protectors and servants of the people. Leave us alone even when we're committing crimes. So, these two NYPD officers pleaded not guilty after being accused of allegedly covering up a drunk driving crash involving an off-duty officer. Officers Michael Caligiuri and Ryan McLaughlin faced a judge on Friday on charges including tampering with evidence and falsifying records. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said in a statement, "The defendants allegedly went to great lengths to protect a fellow officer from accountability." Imagine my profound shock and surprise when I heard that. I know, right now you're sitting there going, "What? Cops? No way. You got to be kidding me. This has to be fake news." Prosecutors claim that Caligiuri and McLaughlin answered a 911 call of a car crash involving an intoxicated driver at West 26th Street and 8th Avenue in Manhattan on the night of October 16th, 2024. The person who called 911 told one of the officers that the driver of the Infiniti SUV had crashed and that he identified himself as Eli Garcia, showed him a police badge, and identified himself as a police officer. An NYPD-issued parking placard was also visible on Garcia's vehicle. Caligiuri is accused of failing to question Garcia about his alleged intoxication and then positioning his body camera so it wouldn't fully show Garcia. And then, of course, there's no attempt by either of these cops to conduct a field sobriety test on Officer Garcia like they would have done with the rest of us. And I know, again, you're sitting there saying to yourself, "What? Preferential treatment among the ranks of law enforcement officials? No." Inside of Manhattan Criminal Court, the hallway was lined with fellow officers offering their support to these two criminals. Prosecutors say Calegory and McLaughlin exchanged text messages on their personal phones, which included the following exchanges. "I don't know what to do. It's bad, man. I'll hold your camera." According to prosecutors, Calegory then took off his body camera and gave it to McLaughlin, who held it up as Calegory called a supervisor. McLaughlin sent a text to Calegory asking what the supervisor said, but no response was sent. Rip-roaring drunk Officer Garcia left the scene in Chelsea, parked his car in a no-parking zone, and was arrested hours afterward at his home in the Bronx, according to the DA's office. And how convenient to arrest Garcia after all the alcohol had worn off. Court records show Garcia pleaded guilty to driving drunk, paid a fine, got no jail time, and then was allowed to retire from the NYPD. And of course, Officer Garcia's name and photo weren't plastered all over the place like they do to the rest of us. Calegory, who's 31 years old, and McLaughlin, who's 30, were in handcuffs as they faced a judge on Friday. But they were surrounded by supporters that included family, fellow officers, and their union. And I got to admit, it's kind of nice to finally see two cops doing the perp walk, but something tells me they're going to get off scot-free with a slap on the wrist. And there's no question that these cops have committed more serious crimes as NYPD officers, just like they all have. The only question is, how many crimes have they gotten away with, and what were the severity of those crimes? How many officers, not just in the NYPD, but all over the United States, are guilty of crimes and are being protected by their fellow thin blue line gang members. When they should be prosecuted, their assets should be liquidated, they shouldn't be allowed to retire, and they should spend the rest of their lives in jail. Now, the Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry, who accused the DA of targeting his officers, said, "These officers did their job. We should not be here today. He needs to support officers instead of going after them. Enough is enough." He needs to support police officers instead of going after police officers. Enough is enough. The District Attorney Alvin Bragg said in a statement, "This type of conduct significantly harms the public trust in law enforcement. Everyone must be treated the same under the law, regardless of their position or background." Which is really just a bunch of word salad, because Alvin knows, and the Police Benevolent Association President knows, that there's a two-tier justice system. Rules for thee, but not for me. And like I said, the officers are charged with first-degree tampering with public records, falsifying business records, tampering with physical evidence, and official misconduct. Which is pretty much all in a day's work for law enforcement officers all across the nation. Now, Calegurian and McLaughlin face the possibility of a trial. The district attorney is considering offering them a deal which would mean no time behind bars, of course. But one source says that it could require the officers to step aside from the NYPD. And believe it or not, after their perp walk in handcuffs, these two are still on duty as they await trial in June. And you know, if they are required to step down as NYPD officers, they'll retain full rights to their pension, they'll get a wonderful retirement, and they'll keep their certification so they can be cops lying on reports in someone else's district. And that's just the way the cookie crumbles and the badge glistens. Leave your thoughts about this for the world and the global thought police in the comment section below.
