Re: Civil action for deprivation of rights committed by Nutter / Philly PD?
I think what it's going to hinge on is whether the preemption statue intended to create a criminal offense. There's a lot of regulations in the UFA that probably would not be construed as criminal offenses if they were violated. Either way, in order to test that in court, you'd either have to get Lynn Abraham or Tom Corbett to bring charges against Nutter et al, and Abraham has already stated she's not going to do that.
