Lawyers for the ex-NYPD cop who fatally tossed a picnic cooler at a drug suspect are mounting a longshot bid to free him as he appeals his manslaughter conviction — and languishes in isolation behind bars. Former police Sgt. and married dad of three Erik Duran, 38, is currently in protective custody away from other inmates on Rikers Island after he was sentenced Thursday to up to nine years in prison for the 2023 death of Eric Duprey, law-enforcement sources told The Post on Friday.
