Instead of the few cents of lead and powder a bill for over seven hundred dollars was charged to the family of a man killed violently and unjustly by the NYPD.
The city has ordered her to pay the $710 cost of repairing the police car that killed her boy.
“We’re still grieving, and this is like a slap in the face,” Robinson’s mom, Laverne Dobbinson, 45, told The News.
“They want my son to pay for damage to the vehicle that killed him. It’s crazy.”
When was the officer trained to use the vehicle as a deadly weapon?
Actually trained police officers are told if they use methods they were not trained in to injure someone they will not be supported by the force and could be brought up on criminal charges. Strange how I never see that come to pass.
When they're not busy cold rapin' ladies, members of the New York City Police Department often like to run over black people with their cars, as two of them allegedly did to Tamon Robinson earlier this year in Queens, killing him. Robinson ran after the cops tried to stop him for removing paving stones from the street, so they drove up onto the sidewalk and ran him over, with their car. Anyway he died but there was a pretty big dent in the cop car so last month they sent a repair bill to his grieving family. Freedom isn't free, people.
I hope she ignores this bill or sends a lawyer after them for emotional distress. This is sickening. These officers are getting away with not only doing these violent attacks but blaming those they victimize.
