New York, December 8 (RHC)-- A retired New York police officer has revealed the police department’s Transit District 34 in Brooklyn encouraged officers to arrest Black and Latino men in exchange for rewards. 

The testimony is part of a discrimination lawsuit filed by Sgt. Edwin Raymond and three other officers, who say they were forced to apprehend more Black and Latino men than other racial and ethnic groups. 

The former officer Pierre Maximilien also said Asian, Jewish and white people — who were referred to as “soft targets” — were not to be cuffed and that all officers in that district were required to fill a “collar quota.” 

Maximilien retired in 2015 after being retaliated against for not following these orders.
