Who are you going to trust? The log book written by cops or the word of some street scum? And since there's no police evidence your client was there, you have no right to even take pictures of the outside of the building your client is lying about being held in!

It is pretty crazy that New York and Chicago have not been subject (and correct me if I'm wrong, I might be) to broad consent decrees on policing as have so many other cities. It's less surprising for New York since their embrace of oppressive policing coincided with a precipitous drop in crime, but now they're in the Feds' sights again, unlike Chicago. (The CPD did have a consent decree to stop their police state anti-commie tactics but as far as I know none related to torture, etc.)

Consent decrees don't do you a lot of good when they show up to your apartment in the middle of the night. I think NYC did have a Federal injunction over stop-and-frisk, but as best I can tell they just stopped calling it that. New York, in particular has a great deal of leeway from the Federal Government because of terrorism concerns. There are even whole neighborhoods with roadblocks and vehicle inspections to enter. It's also worth pointing out that New York's aggressive policing coincided with a drop in crime nationwide.
