Parkchester, Bronx, NY Statement from Assemblyman Luis R. Sepulveda regarding
remarks made by PBA President Patrick Lynch: In recent weeks, our citys entire justice system has been heavily scrutinized. It is therefore understandable that those who do lawfully protect and serve us may feel unduly criticized; however inflammatory remarks will not help to heal any wounds inflicted during this turbulent period. They simply serve to strain relations at a time when cohesion is needed most and to agitate citizens, who would prefer to see a strong, united police force and governing body. I ask that Mr. Lynch apologize to both the Mayor and the Speaker so that they may mend relations and continue working toward a safer more unified New York. ###
