As CBS2's Jenna DeAngelis reported, the firefighter's loved ones and FDNY family gathered at the courthouse in"Since December 9, 2018, it has been a struggle to live in a world without my brother," Ishmael Coto said to Joseph Desmond, the man who ripped firefighter Faizal Coto from his family.
"Not only did he assault him and injure him, but he left him lying on the side of the road without calling for help, calling for assistance. That was a true mark of cowardice," Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said."I object to this trial in its entirety," Desmond said.
"I can deter you from harming other people by keeping you in prison for the remainder of your life and that's precisely what I'm going to do," the judge said.
