A 2019 confrontation between an Auburn man and an Auburn Police Department officer in a downtown parking lot was resolved in Cayuga County Court Tuesday.
Jason J. Murphy, 38, was in front of Judge Mark Fandrich Tuesday in a virtual appearance from the office of his attorney, Annaleigh Porter. Murphy pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct, a violation, in satisfaction of original criminal charges that included the felony of second-degree assault.
On July 16, 2019, Murphy was arrested in the Mavis Discount Tire parking lot by Auburn Police Officer Nicholas Atkins, who saw Murphy outside a vehicle with a car door open and what he thought was a purse in his hand around 1 a.m. APD Deputy Chief Roger Anthony said at the time that Murphy reached for his pocket when Atkins approached him, and Atkins ordered Murphy to remove his hands from his pockets. Atkins later recovered a knife from Murphy. While Atkins was arresting Murphy on a city weapons ordinance violation, Murphy pulled away
