Watch: New York Sanitation Officers Search Through People’s Trash to Cite them for Recycling Improperly
A video posted to Facebook this week shows New York City sanitation officers playing a dirty trick on residents in order to generate revenue.
Digging through their trash.
And then citing anyone who wasn’t “recycling properly”.
The video begins with a man video-recording as he approaches a female officer who is digging through a trash bag.
“Ma’am, can you tell me why you’re taking out garbage from people’s houses in order to give tickets?”
He then turns to a male officer.
