Nick Liakas, the attorney for Gregory Delpeche, filed an $80 million claim stating, 'There is no amount of money that can make up for the harm that Gregory has suffered.' He emphasized that the goal is to make Delpeche's life more manageable and to provide resources for his medical needs. Additionally, Liakas urged for major policy changes, including the elimination of Tasers, citing that the NYPD caused 'irreparable harm' to an innocent bystander.
The incident occurred on September 15th at the Sutter Avenue L train station when police opened fire while attempting to subdue Derell Mickles, who was allegedly armed with a knife. Delpeche was among those injured. The NYPD's attempt to use a Taser failed, leading to gunfire that injured four individuals, including a bystander and a police officer.
