SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 25 -- It was more than
eight years ago on January 18,
2012 that Tiffany Guerrero was
arrested near the Pelham
Parkway elevated train stop on
charges of robbery.
On February 25,
2020 she was in Manhattan
Federal court suing NYPD
Officer David Revans for the
arrest, with City lawyers
trying to keep information
sealed.
Inner City
Press was the only one in the
gallery of the courtroom of
Judge Vernon S. Broderick of
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York.
When the eight
jurors - six for real and two
alternates - went out, Judge
Broderick asked the four City
lawyers if they had listed the
alleged victim in their
discovery
productions.
The City lawyers named her,
and Inner City Press heard the
name. Then they said they
would redacted the transcript
to take it out, and leave only
the initials (I.T.).
They also read
out the phone numbers of
witnesses. Sergeant
Richard Alvarado said
repeatedly he did not remember
anything about the incident
beyond what was in his memo
book, which he did not bring
to court.
This is a civil
rights case against the City
of New York in 2020. The case
is Guerrero v. The City of New
York, et al., 14-cv-8035
(Broderick).
