Policeman, SoHo
Delaney was in
tune with the crowds that pushed past her
and mesmerised by
the depth of history woven into the city’s structures

Janet Delaney’s
life in California was punctuated
by last-minute
flights she would take to NYC as a courier
– where she’d cast
a sleepy gaze across the city

‘The cops picked
up a little kid who looked lost.
He wasn’t much of
a talker, but he wasn’t scared.
The cops bought
him ice cream and soda.
He didn’t cry
until his sister came to take him home.
She said he was
always running away,
and this time he
was really gonna get it. He cried bitterly.
We watched her
yank him up the street and out of sight’

William
Phillips ? - 2023
He was a
star witness in televised hearings
in New
York.
He was
then convicted of murder
and
spent decades in prison
saying
he’d been framed for speaking out.
In
criminal justice circles,
they
still debate
the case
of the New York City police officer
William
R. Phillips.
He was a
star witness
at
televised hearings in 1971
that
exposed pervasive police corruption
in New
York City.
But he
was then convicted
of
killing two people
and went
to prison for 32 years.
After
more than four decades
of court
and parole battles,
newspaper and magazine articles, books,
a
documentary and disputes among judges,
lawyers
and witnesses,
the
question still remains:
Did he
commit murder,
or was
he framed in retaliation
for
breaking the blue wall of silence?
