New York State Appellate Division

RECORDS AND BRIEFS

If Your Honor please, I don’t want to put you in the position of committing reversible error, there is a court of appeals decision, which I will bring to you before the next return date, which states I have the right to ask the witness as to any criminal activity which he has conducted…

Now, this man is now apparently under arrest. Not out on bail, not in jail, he is being treated like a pet, he is being kept in a hotel because he can testify against cops. I intend to show that this is the motive to relieve himself of any punishment on the forgery charge he is presently facing, which prompts him to testify against these Respondents. You refuse to direct him to answer that question, puts me in the position of not being able to press this issue…

If Your Honor please, the reason the indictment is not being pressed [against Di Prisco] is because I intend to prove he received a promise to testify against cops, that’s why the indictment is being held over his head.
