Hi.
10:50:21
I'm Tawaki Komatsu.
10:50:22
I'm Missyala, and I've testified to you many times.
10:50:25
I think the last time I was here was on March 11th.
10:50:28
I had a laptop in front of me then.
10:50:29
I don't have it now because it was illegally stolen from me just a couple days ago in a facility that I've apprised you about previously.
10:50:37
While I was in this room, I was exchanging text messages with someone who also got criminally assaulted recently, If you look behind my left here, you'll see a result of a punch that I took because people like you don't do squat when people come to a public hearing.
10:50:53
Also, with regards to today's testimony, you illegally discriminated against the public by letting people testify without time limits.
10:51:00
So I'm gonna be filing motion in Komatsu versus the city in New York tomorrow in 24 dash 1309 with the 2nd Circuit to avoid today's hearing.
10:51:08
Bye.
