NYPD fires accused pimp cop

Officer Monty Green, charged with promoting prostitution, has been fired by the NYPD.

The Brooklyn cop accused of moonlighting as a pimp has been fired by the NYPD.
Officer Monty Green was booted from the force by Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly after a departmental trial, sources confirmed Tuesday.
But Green, who had been on modified duty and assigned to Fleet Services, is not going down without a fight. He denies doing anything wrong.
“He’s going to sue in federal court,” Green’s lawyer, Eric Sanders, told The Daily News. “The dismissal is baseless.
“You can’t base it on stereotypes and inuendo,” he added.
The Internal Affairs Bureau’s case against Green “was all speculation.”
“You don’t terminate people on speculation,” he said.
Sanders said Green, who was officially sacked last week, will be suing the city and the IAB investigators who built the case against him.
There was no immediate response from the NYPD.
Green is now out of a job, but he has not been charged with a crime.
Police investigators presented their case to the Brooklyn District Attorney's office in 2009. But the DA declined to file criminal charges because several hookers were afraid to testify against Green, sources said.
Green landed in hot water three years ago after he was caught trying to pimp out a woman named Candy who turned out to be an undercover cop, sources told The Daily News.
“You looking for a daddy?” Green was heard saying on secretly-recorded wiretaps.
The News also reported that Green allegedly took other women to a Brooklyn lounge that doubled as a brothel.
IAB first became suspicious of Green in 2009, when he was caught on a wiretap talking to pimp Jason "China" Marshalleck "about pimping prostitutes," NYPD prosecutor Vivian Joo said at Green’s departmental trial.
Also, Internal Affairs Sgt. Michael Rothenbucher testified that IAB officers tailing Green spotted him having sex on a Bushwick street with a woman on Dec. 13, 2009.
Rothenbucher said they spotted Green and another man leave Rockwell's Bar & Lounge in downtown Brooklyn, pick up the woman, and head to Bushwick.
Sanders said Green was guilty of harmless flirting and accused IAB of entrapping the officer. “They can’t prove anything,” he said.
In addition to promoting prostitution, Green was also charged with menacing for an unrelated July 2009 incident where he allegedly pulled a gun on a woman who spurned his advances.
Sanders said the woman, Shara Whorley, is a criminal looking to get Green in trouble. He also suggested Green was trying to cultivate her as an informant.
