The NYPD can pursue disciplinary actions against any employee as they see fit.
One of the officers employed a choke-hold which is against department policy.
It is certainly not circumventing justice to discipline employees who blatantly disregard the standards and procedures that are part and parcel of their job descriptions.
Or are employers now no longer allowed to expect that their employees will follow their directives?
What's the problem? The feds have not charged him with any violation of federal law (such as deprivation of civil rights), the state of NY has decided to charge him under NY law. There are two different court systems here, state and federal, you can be charged in either, both, or neither. Happens all the time.
He's not being criminally charged though. The Feds, the city and the state haven't charged him.
This is an internal Department charge.
The worst that can happen here is that he loses his job.
Arrested for being a free-market entrepreneur. Killed for protecting himself and his property.
Boy, you so-called "conservatives" sure do hate capitalism.
Extreme Libertarianism will rot your brain. It's advocating for the biggest bully on the block to rule and own everything. It's complete chaos and anarchy. It's what misfits of society call for.

The Constitutionalist in me says, that man should be alive today, and had a nice conversation how the kids were and if his mom was doing OK, on that day of reckoning.

You witnessed how the MAFIA worked.
No, what you witnessed was a man resisting arrest and suffering from a heart attack.
Suffering airway blockage from chokehold,
leading to asthmatic attack? (I can't breathe)
then leading to cardiac arrest.
Let it go. We know what happened. Some will try and get this closed by misrepresenting what happened.
