He was also armed with a 9-mm handgun, and told one informant that he would be ready to shoot if necessary, according to a Bronx Criminal Lawyer. The auxiliary officer set up the exchange after boasting that he could transport ten kilograms of coke by recruiting members of the NYPD, while the veteran officer was the muscle to carry out the plan. The retiree had been with the NYPD for twenty years (1986-2006), and the auxiliary was from the 30th precinct in the Bronx and had been there since 2006, reports New York Criminal Lawyers.

An Imam from Queens was sentenced to only four days in jail which he had already
served for lying to FBI agents. The imam had been serving as an NYPD informant and
pleaded guilty to telling an Afghanistan immigrant that he was under investigation,
reports a Queens Criminal Lawyer. The immigrant, along with three co-conspirators,
were plotting to kill hundreds with homemade backpack bombs by detonating them in
the subways of Manhattan during rush hour. This knowledge caused the immigrant to
abort his plan, dispose of his materials for bomb, and left the city, which alerted two
other suicide bombers that they too were being watched, compromising the integrity of
the operation. In the plea arrangement, the imam will also have ninety days in which to
leave the United States, says a Queens Criminal Lawyer. He is not allowed to ever
return. He will be leaving behind a successful funeral parlor in Queens, as well as a wife,
children, and his elderly parents. New York Criminal Lawyers state that all of the
bombers that were being investigated by the FBI were trained by al Queda. The imam's
attorney claims that he did everything he could to help law enforcement and it was not
him but the FBI that tipped off the bomber. Prosecutors, of course, disagree with this
profession. The imam, also Afghan-born, revealed to the immigrant that federal agents
had his phones tapped and warned him to not involve himself in the "nonsense" in
Afghanistan and Iraq. At this time, the imam does not know where he will go, but has
hopes that some country will be willing to take him in. He does not have plans to return
to Afghanistan.

A Suffolk County Court Judge received a guilty plea from a Smithtown man on a14-count indictment, one of which was aggravated vehicular manslaughter. A mother of two children under the age of nine, also from Smithtown, was killed by the man who was driving while intoxicated. The man had consumed five or six vodka drinks at two bars, after having taken Xanax earlier that day. He was northbound on Route 25A in his Chevy Silverado pickup truck when he crossed over the center line into the path of the young mother. The two vehicles hit head on. The driver of the truck admitted his negligence caused the accident, so statements from possible witnesses will most likely be unnecessary. The man is out on bond until his sentencing on June 9. The judge promised the man, in exchange for his plea, to a prison term of no more than 5 to 15 years. According to a Suffolk County Criminal Lawyer, the maximum sentence if he had received a trial conviction would have been 8 1/3 to 25 years. This was not his first time facing DWI charges, as he had been previously convicted of driving while impaired in 1988 and in 1999. He has remained sober since the accident, however. The children of the crash victim are the ones that quite possibly have been most affected by this incident, says a Suffolk County Criminal Lawyer, and will require the support of the family. It was not reported if the children’s father is going to be assuming responsibility for them, or if the victim’s family will have to step in.

A player for the NFL team, Pittsburg Steelers, will not face sexual assault charges after an encounter with a college student in a nightclub that occurred on March 5th. The young lady accused the man of attacking her in the Milledgeville, GA club Capital City. Because the allegation could not be proven beyond all reasonable doubt, the 20 year old decided not to proceed with charges; therefore no arrest was made according to a NY Criminal Lawyer. Her primary statement was that the man had been drinking with his friends after his birthday celebration then assaulted her, but she was found to be heavily inebriated and investigators found the results of her rape kit to prove inconclusive. The Ocmulgee Circuit DA stated that the actions of the man that night were not being condoned, but morals are not prosecuted, crimes are. With all current evidence being considered, it cannot be determined that an actual crime took place therefore this case will not proceed any further, says a NY Criminal Lawyer.
