Alleged NYPD sodomy victim Michael Mineo unleashes tirade over implications lawsuit is money grab
Source: New York Daily News


A man who says cops sodomized him with a baton erupted in anger Thursday when asked if his $220 million suit against the city is a money grab.

"I'm angry," Michael Mineo told reporters outside Brooklyn Federal Court, where he was accompanied by two lawyers for the filing.

"I didn't ask for this to happen to me," he said. "It's humiliating. I'm a man. I was raped by four men who held me down and put a baton into my rectum. How am I supposed to feel? There is no forgiveness."

Mineo, 24, a tattoo artist, was agitated by reporters' questions about his health and how the cops' lawyers will use his civil suit against him in the officers' criminal case.

Three cops have been indicted in the Oct. 15 attack at the Prospect Park subway station, where Mineo fled from cops who suspected him of smoking marijuana. They are set to go on trial in Brooklyn Supreme Court in September.

2. I'd like to see that reporter ask that question again while he's being sodomized with broomstick.
Lets see how he likes it.

3. He deserves every penny.
Being arrested for a criminal offence does not give the police the right to sexually abuse you.

4. And so we see the Torture Nation Policies come home to roost
Everyday it is another story of violent abuse by those in authority. It is not a matter of chance.
