The Binghamton City Council unanimously passed a resolution condemning the conduct of former police chief Joseph Zikuski and calling for a full investigation of his actions at its meeting on Wednesday night.

On Thursday, WSKG confirmed that after a request from Broome County District Attorney Paul Battisti, a special prosecutor was assigned in July, shortly after the incident that led to an investigation of Zikuski.

Otsego County District Attorney John Muehl was appointed to oversee the criminal case against Joseph Zikuski’s girlfriend Susan Rice.

Rice is facing three charges stemming from her punching a 16-year-old neighbor. The incident was captured on video and spread widely on social media.

Battisti said the special prosecutor's investigation includes some of Zikuski’s actions uncovered in the city’s independent investigation.

The lawsuit alleges Elmira blocked construction of an affordable, supportive housing project for people with disabilities. Allegations include discriminatory statements made about potential residents with disabilities during public hearings.

The proposed housing includes 50 affordable housing units with 15 supportive units set aside for people with disabilities.
