Family of Mathieu Lefevre Sues NYPD for Withholding Crash Information

[B' Spokes: Since some Maryland bicycle crash investigations take an extraordinary amount of time, this case in NYC may be of interest to watch.]
*********************************************************************
"NYPD routinely denies access to information on deadly crashes, often based on the claim that releasing even the most rudimentary details would jeopardize crash investigations. The Lefevre lawsuit challenges that practice, based in part on the fact that NYPD has declared that no charges will be filed for Mathieu’s death."
