Brooklyn, NY asked in Criminal Law, Civil Rights and Libel & Slander for New York

Q: Can a uniformed NYPD Patrol Officer conduct an "ongoing" criminal investigation into a person's conduct?

A uniformed NYPD Patrol Officer has had me under criminal investigation since 2006. He is in the 114 Precinct. (According to the Patrol Officers Guide, his jurisdiction is limited to the 114 Precinct.) He has had me under investigation for murder. He has had me under investigation for the Boston Bombing. (I live in a Long Term Acute Care Facility in Manhattan and breathe through a tube on a Ventilator.) He has had me under investigation for the little girl who was found in Massachusetts. He has had me under investigation for terrorism. He has had me under investigation for Social Security fraud. He has had me under investigation for 9/11. He has had me under investigation for drugs, prostitution, and anything else he can think up. He always claims that people have "positively identified" me. (There is no way under the sun that anyone in Boston "identified" me.)
