she hit a cop. really, so if a pregnant woman hits me accidently i could brutalize her to miscarrage? come on idiots, there's always cop defenders out there no matter what the scenario who will bow down to the authority of some moron with a badge.

coming soon to bloombergs nyc...

cop shoots and kills chiwawa, claims vicious animal attacked him and he feared for his life.

cop grabs infant out of sling, claims suspect made furtive movements, cherrios passed to other baby was suspected as drug deal, baby handcuffed with knee on neck for 20 minutes while id check for warrants was run.

doesnt sound too unusual...

So she hit a cop, and was taken to the ground to be arrested? This suit should be thrown out, but the city will probably settle for $20k.

act like a savage, get treated like a savage..heres a good idea, if you're pregnant try to punch a cop..smart

you dickheads who love defending police brutality and the corrupt ways of the nypd, mayor, gay kelly ect ect, will probably still be indenial, until you cross paths with those animal officers and you're face down with your teeth in front of you. I bet you idiots would still defend the cop in the video on youtube where the animal cop runs at the man on bike and knock him face first to the grownd for no reason at all..

"And though she admits she took a swing at her neighbor and accidentally hit the police officer"

I bet she was reading to her baby inside her stomach while listening to classical or jazz music before chaos insued.

New York needs less kids including kids both from the above woman and the Goldman Sacs fem. executives!

REMEMBER: "admit" means ZILCH.

FACT:

even the NYPD "admits" that thousands of "confessions" they got were FAKE. (Usually coerced.)

(You think 113 innocent men got on death row accidentally??)

STOP being so gullible.

FUN FACT:

every paper I've ever wrote for CHANGED MY WORDS and STAS to protect City Hall yet MY name was listed as the author.

100% of you would say "but CXB himself wrote _____".

No. CXB did not.

Humans are not honest creatures.

We're not talking about a confession she made to police...she concedes in her own lawsuit that she hit the cop.

Ok, so hitting a cop is really, really stupid and this woman does not exactly sound like the epitome of classy.

However, there seems to be an ongoing and widespread problem of the NYPD using too much force and knocking someone to the ground (if her account is true) seems to be a bit much. Also, if the person you've knocked to the ground says repeatedly that she's pregnant then maybe a different way of subduing that person would be more prudent.

Whatever this lady's problem is, she doesn't deserve the tragedy of carrying a child to 6 months only to have it die right after she was involved in this altercation.

We do live in an overly litigious society, but if this really happened then it seems like a pretty solid reason to sue.

So says this woman. There are two sides to every story. I'm actually inclined to believe a cop over some litigious nutbag who goes around hitting them.

You're clearly not from around here.

Of course, you do.

will this go to a jury? you also mean she's suing the NYPD and not really the cop, right? unless she can sue the cop personally.

OH CRAP, one more FUN FACT:

in 1997, a Giuliani judge convicted me of "summary contempt" in court and gave me 30 days in jail illegally. My own lawyer refused to help (b/c there is no accountability in the legal profession).

I did 17 days in Rikers but was released on Time Served by another Giuliani judge who said I was guilty.

When my appeal went to judges ABOVE Giuliani's head, ALL FIVE UNANIMOUSLY SAID MY "CONVICTION" WAS CLEARLY ILLEGAL and reversed it.

Was I able to SUE for 17 days in jail falsely held?

NOPE.

(Thanks to legal loopholes.)

TELL ME AGAIN HOW EASY IT IS TO SUE THE CITY.

STOP believing media lies and govt lies.

PLEASE??

Almost none of these cases go to a jury b/c the City always SETTLES at the last second because the govt INDEED broke the law.

They then LIE about it, claiming "it's cheaper to taxpayers to settle" and not one reporter asks "but then why did you settle YEARS into litigation instead of BEFORE you paid for the army of lawyers of the Corporation Counsel to try and stop these lawsuits?"

If it was about saving money, they wouldn't wait til a jury is being selected to settle, duh!

They'd settle years earlier.

SOMEDAY you will all learn to stop trusting politicians and their cronies.

here we go, where is fat al

Let's see you NOT use the talking points of someone else for once.

Thanks!

ok, know it all don't you work with all your long ass comments ... :)

Gee, who knew that hitting a cop would cause them to arrest you.

So you just blindly TRUST media reports?

Man, I bet you're glad we got those WMDs in Iraq!

And you're probably elated that the GOP's Rudy and Mike lowered NYC's taxes so much!

Pro tip: Don't swing at cops when you're pregnant.
