The NY Police unions needs protect this cop from being fired.
A Manhattan jury convicted a city cop accused of unlawfully arresting a man, then making up a story to legitimize the arrest — paving the way for his expulsion from the NYPD, officials said.
Officer Jonathan Munoz, 33, arrested a 21-year-old man in Washington Heights on March 12, 2014, claiming he was interfering in a legitimate search of a woman’s purse for pot and got into a “fighting stance” before lunging at him.
Video surveillance recovered from the scene, however, proved that the man did not try to fight Munoz, who unlawfully searched the woman as she stood on the sidewalk.
Munoz was convicted of offering a false instrument for filing and official misconduct, officials said.
The 10-year NYPD veteran will be fired as a result, officials said.
Thanks to the Cop Haters smears
