The ex-NYPD sergeant sentenced to prison Thursday for fatally chucking a cooler at a fleeing drug suspect grew up in a violent Bronx neighborhood to become a “model” cop before his sudden downfall. Former Sgt. Erik Duran “always protected the vulnerable” during his 15 years on the force, his lawyer said in court – but his career and life were thrown into disarray when he caused the death of Eric Duprey in August 2023.
