“A New York judge who says a police officer struck him after apparently mistaking him for a heckler is blasting Queens District Attorney Richard Brown for refusing to prosecute. Judge Thomas Raffaele claims Brown is orchestrating a cover-up and a press release explaining the refusal to prosecute is full of falsehoods, Raffaele told the New York Law Journal. ‘Everything they say is a lie.’ [The judge] said investigators didn’t contact his witnesses until he complained. ‘Given the way the officers lied to cover up what this guy did who hit us, I have to wonder if the same cover-up attitude extends to the detectives in the DA’s office.'”
