"The Correction Officers Benevolent Association applauds Judge Quinn's decision to acquit Officer Joseph Donlon and retired Officer John Andujar of these charges. This trial was nothing more than a colossal waste of taxpayers' dollars trying to impugn the careers and reputations of two veteran Correction Officers based on the heresy of a convicted felon.  In light of Judge Quinn's decision, we are now calling for Officer Donlon to be immediately reinstated to his position as a Correction Officer, and for him to be fully reimbursed for all monies and contractual benefits that he lost due to this false allegation." - John Jaronczyk, COBA President
