"Use of Force" is a sub-series of the podcast where we highlight one instance of NYPD use of lethal force 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 2019 death of Antonio Williams, 27, and Officer Brian Mulkeen, 33. Williams was approached by plainclothes officers while waiting for a car and a struggle ensued. Mulkeen shot Williams multiple times before being shot himself being shot by friendly fire. For more information including a mapping of lethal force in New York over the past decade, visit:
