On March 25, 2018, Police Officer Denzel Suitt conducted a stop of Jermaine Palms and Jonathan Davis, allegedly stealing $600 in the process, according to the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office. A jury ultimately convicted him of theft in the value of $500 or less, official misconduct with a benefit not greater than $200.
The press event came after Real Garden State published an in-depth feature questioning the legitimacy of the case.
“Nearly all the circumstantial evidence, with his witness testimony and investigation conducted by the Jersey City PD Internal Affairs Unit and Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office, has dubious issues,” BLESC President Anthony Smith said outside of their headquarters on Martin Luther King Drive yesterday.
