I'm glad that NY City thinks only LEOs should carry...
Hofstra campus police see a fellow burst thru their security checkpoint, confront a fellow who was dating his ex-girlfriend, and stick a gun in his face. They arrest him, and find out he's an NYPD officer with his service pistol

Hopefully soon to be an ex-police officer, then a convicted felon.

Why wasn't he charged with "assault with a deadly weapon"?

he has already received all the penalty he will. 30 days without pay. Bet on it.

He deserves a felony conviction and a year in the general population. And yes, I understand that that would probably be a death sentence.
But unless and until at least ONE of these thugs has to take it in the neck, ALL OTHERS who are inclined to jack-booted ways get the message that nothing will happen to them, and they continue their depredations on the citizenry.

Since the court "granted orders of protection for the man and Chaudhry's ex-girlfriend," I presume he can't carry at all, on-duty or not.
