BILL NUMBER:S2402 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the penal law, in relation to aggravated harassment of peace officers or police officers PURPOSE: To establish the crime of aggravated harassment of a police officer or peace officer and make such crime a class E felony. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one amends the penal law by adding a new section 240.33 establishing the crime of aggravated harassment of a police officer or peace officer. Section two is the effective date. JUSTIFICATION: Police officers all across this state put their lives on the line every day to protect the people of New York. New York State must establish laws and toughen existing laws that protect the police from becoming victims of criminals. Far too many law enforcement officers are being harassed, injured, even killed while honoring their commitment to protect and serve this state. The Legislature has a responsibility to do everything we can to protect our brave heroes, our police officers, from violent criminals. This legislation contributes to that premise
