SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 18 –
Hilary A. Best sued NYC
Corrections Officers after,
facing an assault, he threw
soup on a guard "hoping that
doing so would compel him to
summon a response team to
remove me from the housing
unit."
On January 18, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge

proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Best said
he would withdraw his false
arrest claim but proceed with
other claims.
A motion to
dismiss is due on February 21.
The case is Best
