NY City Council Votes On NYPD Oversight

NEW YORK, NY - AUGUST 22: City Council member Christine Quinn votes with other members on whether to bring a motion to the floor to override Mayor Michael Bloomberg's vetoes to establish an inspector general for the New York Police Department (NYPD) weeks after a federal judge ruled that the NYPD violated the civil rights of minorities with their stop-and-frisk policy on August 22, 2013 in New York City. U.S. District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin ordered a monitor to focus on stop-and-frisk, a policy she declared that the department has used in a manner that violated the rights of hundreds of thousands of black and Hispanic men. The city is appealing the ruling. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
