Its just too simplistic to say thats the whole story, de Blasio said. We had the curfew for a purpose because we saw too much violence of different kinds, and we had to end the violence and we did end the violence. And now adjudicating what should happen in each case depends on the specifics of the case. Thats just all there is to it. Many of the 1,349 New Yorkers who still have open criminal summonses solely for violating de Blasios curfew were physically detained for hours by the police. Others were seriously injured by members of the NYPD who were enforcing the mayors curfew, which de Blasio ended up rescinding one night early.

Nearly half of those who were written criminal summonses for curfew violation were Black, according to data from the NYPD569 people were Black or Black and Hispanic, 280 were white Hispanics, 413 were white, 59 were Asian. Violating curfew is a Class B Misdemeanor, punishable with a fine of up to $500 and as much as three months in jail or both, according to New York State penal code. Many curfew violators are due in summons court in the coming months.
