Assembly leader says state legislature will repeal police privacy law

For almost half a century, Section 50-A of a New York state law sealed personnel information about police officers, firefighters and corrections officers.

Some of it is truly personal: home address, family information, even data about a police officer who might once have had substance problems. That information may become public Monday, with state legislators and Gov. Andrew Cuomo planning to repeal that legal provision of the Civil Service Law and open up information.
