William,

I am so sorry to hear of your traumatic and painful crash.

Your crash story detailing police misconduct and mistreatment is enraging. These transgressions are completely unnecessary. How can so many people experience these problems with the NYPD and nothing be done to change it?

Thank you for sharing your story. I do hope you can channel your voice into action and I do hope you have a support system. There’s a group called Families for Safe Streets NYC that works to support those who are survivors of crashes and those who are family members of crash victims. They also commit to some advocacy work.

I am a part of this group, as are many others. Our similar tragedies make our voices stronger in the face of making structural changes and cultural shifts in NYC.

All the best,

Danielle
