RAMPANT CORRUPTION AT THE MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
The attached audio clip was recorded on December 30, 2008 outside the gate of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, 7th floor, 100 Center St.
I was at the DA to check the status of a criminal complaint against a Judge (Herman Cahn) who had committed various felonies and misdemeanors, including tampering with evidence.
The morning before the recorded incident occurred, I had gone to 1 Hogan Place, which is the entrance to the DA's office. I was told by the guard there that I was on a "list" of people banned from the DA's office, and that I could not enter. No reason was given.
Although 1 Hogan place shares a building with 100 Center street, they are entirely distinct and have separate access. 100 Center street houses numerous Government agencies, and several courtrooms.
Having been denied access to the DA's office, I went to the clerk at 100 Center street, and asked how I could obtain information on the status of the complaint. The clerk told me to go to room 732, where the records of complaints are kept.
Room 732 is in the DA's office, but is accessed through a guarded gate on the seventh floor of 100 Center street. The clerk told me that I had "Every right" to go to the DA's office to check my complaint.
The following recorded conversation took place at the gate.
The NYPD officer at the gate told lie after lie, trying to dissuade me from checking the status of the case.
When I failed to be dissuaded by her nonsensical arguments, she rang an alarm, and two thugs from the DA's office; NYPD Detective Carlo Fargnoli and DA investigator Ed Tacchi came out from the DA's office, threatened to beat and imprison me if I didn't leave 100 Center street. and proceeded to grab me by the arms, force me to go down the elevator and violently threw me into the street.
Later, I complained to Mr Terrance Mulderig of the the District Attorney's "internal affairs" office. He DENIED that there anyone named Fargnoli or Tacchi worked at the DA's office. The NYPD's internal affairs also denied that Fargnoli was a NYPD employee, but he is: NYPD Detective on the District Attorney squad.
Finally, I called the operator and asked to speak with Fargnoli and Tacchi. I was connected to their extensions. No actrion has been taken against any of the perpetrators. I am denied access to ALL of the public agencies and services in 100 Center Street as well as the DA's office. I cannot enter either building for fear of being beaten and imprisoned.
Ultimately, I complained about the DA to the Manhattan FBI, who told me there was no federal crime involved. In fact, there are numerous distinct violations of Title 18 USC, as well as "Pattern and Practice" and "Violations under Color of Law" which fall EXCLUSIVELY under the jurisdiction of the FBI.
Please consider that I am a well off, white, middle aged, male. If these thugs can deprive me of my civil liberties with utter impunity, what chance does a poor black single mother have to find justice in this toilet of a State?
This is the legacy of Robert Morganthau's District Attorney.
Will Cyrus Vance do any better? I wrote Mr. Vance two months ago with this audio attached, and have heard nothing. I understand he is busy, but he should have an assistant contact me.
There are criminals running his office.
The most shocking aspect of this recording is that the perpetrators are so utterly confident of their impunity, offering the careful spelling of their names, because they know that they are "untouchable".
I played harmonica on the score of the Movie "The Untouchables", but Elliot Ness was "Uncorruptable". These thugs are just "Unaccountable".
I have many colleagues who have suffered worse than I at the hands of these criminals. The DA has destroyed and altered evidence, ignored Police reports, held secret Grand juries and God only knows how many poeople they have killed. Who would investigate? They would make Joseph Stalin proud.
Cyrus, you made a lot of promises to clean up the DA. Are you a man of your word?
Stay tuned.

I mean I am amazed that they let honest people like you work there for so long. In my experience the place is run by crooks and I imagine they don't want anyone working there who won;t play their game.
No offense meant, I assure you.

Man,
I'm surprised you lasted as long as you did without being a criminal. The Brooklyn courts and 2nd Dept are SO corrupt. If you want more documented dirt of outright illegal activity please contact me.
I have a file full and have many colleagues with much much more.
The problem is getting anyone to listen. NY is corrupt to the top. However, there are people watching, and action will be taken. A LOT of heads will roll, including Lippman's.

As disgusting as this is...this has become reality within our judicial system. I devoted 20 years of my life to this country to preserve freedoms and our way of life as it was originally intended by our founding fathers of this nation, not the bureaucrats cloaked in black robes that sit on their pinnacle of power issuing decisions that have nothing to do with moral responsibility, equality, integrity, all that this country stands for. Americans are letting this happen, We need to fight again.

I think that if this guy would have had more information or if he would'nt have been acting so irratic he would'nt have had any problems.
