SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 9 – Shantay Lynch sued
Rikers Island corrections
officers for detaining her and
sending her children to ACS
after falsely accusing her of
smuggling into the jail K2
synthetic marijuana on her
children's Christmas cards and
diapers.
On December 9, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Denise L. Cote held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Lynch's
case was intially before SDNY
Judge John G. Koeltl, but
NYC's Corporation Counsel
successfully argued that is is
related to three cases Judge
Cote has said: Williams,
Camacho and Gusman.
Judge Cote
on December 9 said that
following the transfer to her
she would try to have it also
transferred to Magistrate
Judge Ona T. Wang - then was
told, that's already done.
The case is
Lynch, et al. v. Dockery, et
al., 21-cv-7106 (Cote)
