Use of Force - Charles Mozdir

"Use of Force" is a sub-series of the podcast where we highlight one instance of lethal use of force in New York City over the past decade along the route we're walking for the week. The name refers to the Use of Force reports the NYPD generates each year where descriptions of these events are compiled. This week we discuss the 2014 death of Charles Mozdir, 32. Modzir was a suspected sex offender on the run from California authorities when a television show led to information on his whereabouts, prompting U.S. Marshalls and NYPD to seek his arrest.  For more information including a mapping of lethal force in New York over the past decade, visit:
