New York City, NY – City Employees Accused Of Making A Fake Parking Pass

New York City, NY – Two city employees now have a reserved spot in court, after they were caught making a phony parking pass.

Richard Mathies, a computer technician at Curtis High School used his technological know-how — and the St. George school’s computers and scanning equipment — to create a fake dashboard parking placard for his co-worker, School Safety Agent Joy Bradford.
The placard was designed to simulate an official city-issued parking permit for the New York City Department of Correction. Such permits grant Correction officers parking spaces in specially designated zones.

Police from the 120th Precinct arrested both Ms. Bradford, 31, a Brooklyn resident, and Mathies, 28, of Pleasant Plains, on charges of criminal possession of a forged instrument.
