The attack took place shortly after 3 a.m. on Feb. 18, as the man, Tyre Davis, emerged from the 46th Precinct station house, the police said.
He was leaving after being issued a summons charging him with disorderly conduct, the Police Department’s chief spokesman, Paul J. Browne, said. The victim recognized two officers who had arrested him that night and “starts ranting at them for having arrested him,” Mr. Browne said. “And in that alley nearby, they assaulted him, presumably as a result of his cursing at them.”
The two officers, Joseph Murphy, 26, and Jose Ocasio, 28, struck Mr. Davis “repeatedly with closed fists and kicks” to his face and body, according to a criminal complaint. Mr. Davis had a cut and bruise to his forehead, as well as swelling behind his right ear, the complaint said.

Well, here we go again! I know everyone must be tired of "bad cop posts" but awareness is the beginning of stoping this kind of abuse. These two psycopaths will face trial for their beating of aseventeen year old for a silly comment as they should. When prosecution of this sort of police behavior becomes the norm it will stop.
The officers expect to be vindicated, their lawyer said after the arrest.
