Defense attorney James Monroe said Webster had a right to defend himself against a “bad cop” who was using excessive force.

So if you're a retired cop now, you're allowed to fight back? Hmmm 🤔

He's retired NYCPD. Can you even imagine how many minorities he's assaulted in his career during arrests or otherwise? And they couldn't fight back?

This piece of trash goes to the Jan 6 event to march for Trump based on bullshit lies and then attacks a cop claiming self defense. When we can be 110% sure that cop did absolutely nothing to him compared to the bullshit he did to people over his career.

These losers throwing it all away and going back on what they claim to stand for.....for Trump of all people lmao

Especially if he was a police officer when that lowlife Giuliani was the mayor. Giuliani made his political bones and won the Staten Island vote by basically bragging about promoting police brutality
