A young Bronx woman says NYPD cops got angry when she filmed them arresting her cousin — so they slapped her in cuffs on bogus gun possession charges.
Anais Pagan alleges in court papers filed last month in Bronx Supreme Court that cops set her up when she was an 18-year-old high school senior.
Surveillance video turned over through the wrongful-arrest lawsuit shows Pagan never had a gun, her attorney Neil Wollerstein writes in the April 26 filing.
The .22-caliber handgun police said she possessed was found to have neither her fingerprints nor DNA on it, he also noted.
NYPD Detective Richard Cleri, who said in court papers he saw the gun drop from Pagan’s waistband on Feb. 8, 2019, has been found by judges in two separate cases to have given unreliable testimony.
