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

No sleep till Brooklyn:

a red-eye view of New York – in pictures

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’

 

Cop a load of this:

on the beat with the NYPD – in pictures

 

Between 1978 and 1981,

Jill Freedman tagged along with the NYPD

as they arrested burglars,

picked up stray kids and kicked down doors

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?
