Just more proof NYPD have failed to scream out criminals and instead gives them a badge and a gun. Also shows the city is guilty as sin and gets to plead not guilty and handover tax payer money - how about admitting wrongdoing?
‘Rape’ cop’s brutality suit
The boozed-up police officer accused of raping a schoolteacher in upper Manhattan last week was once slapped with a brutality suit that cost the NYPD $25,000, The Post has learned.
Michael Pena, 27, and another cop “assaulted and battered” Anthony Mosley — and performed a vicious body-cavity search that went “beyond all possible bounds of decency,” according to the 2010 lawsuit.
The attack occurred on Aug. 15, 2009, in Harlem.
“There was no admission of wrongdoing,” said NYPD spokesman Paul Browne.
Pena was indicted yesterday in last Friday’s attack on a 25-year-old teacher.

Excerpt:
"The Bloomberg administration routinely dismissed the relevance of civil suits against the NYPD, even as the number of claims against the department doubled over the past decade to a record high of 9,570 filed in 2012. The suits cost taxpayers more than $1 billion dollars during that time period.
They “had a ‘see no evil, hear no evil’ attitude,” said former city Controller John Liu, whose repeated calls for analyzing lawsuits were ignored.
A months-long News review of lawsuits against the NYPD over the past decade shows that 55 officers on the 34,000-person department have been sued 10 or more times during that time period, costing taxpayers more than $6 million."
Most sued cop:

Detective Peter Valentin (top) and (from left) Detective Vincent Orsini, Sgt. Fritz Glemaud and Detective Warren Rohan are among the 55 NYPD cops who have been sued at least 10 times over the past decade.
They're the NYPD's most-sued cops, and Peter Valentin’s their king.
Valentin, a hard-charging Bronx narcotics detective whose online handle is “PistolPete,” has been sued a stunning 28 times since 2006 on allegations of running slash-and-burn raids that left dozens of lives in ruins while resulting in few criminal convictions.
The city has paid out $884,000 to settle cases naming the stocky, 36-year-old detective, but he doesn’t seem too concerned.
“I’m not aware of that,” he scoffed at a Daily News reporter when told of his claim to shame. “Once it goes to court, I don’t follow it.”"
