BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â How is it that an officer of the Buffalo Police Department could be suspended two days for excessive use of force against a suspect, and suspended 45 working days for improperly tagging people s parking tickets?
It s what the man who was on the receiving end of that excessive force wants to know, and it s information we re only aware of because of the repeal of Section 50-a of New York s Civil Right s Law in 2020.
