Slavin, 299 A.D.2d 499 (2d Dept. 2002).[6] The Court of Appeals affirmed in turn, 1 N.Y.3d 392 (2004), holding that admitting photographs of Slavin's white-supremacist tattoos as evidence of hate-crime motive did not violate his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, because \"the tattoos were physical characteristics, not testimony forced from his mouth\" and \"the People did not compel him to create them in the first place\"; a majority of the Court did, however, find the tattoo evidence too thin to sustain the aggravated-harassment counts standing alone, though that error was harmless given \"overwhelming\" proof on the more serious charges.[5] The U.S. Supreme Court denied certiorari the same year.[6] Slavin's accomplice, Ryan Wagner, was separately convicted of the same core charges and sentenced to concurrent 25-year terms; the Appellate Division's 2006 decision reduced those terms to 15 years \"as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice\" while affirming the convictions, expressly relying on the Court of Appeals' Slavin decision for the tattoo-evidence issue the two men had raised in common.[6]",
          "Farmingville also gave rise to a landmark federal sex-discrimination ruling in the volunteer fire service. In Pietras v. Board of Fire Commissioners of the Farmingville Fire District, 180 F.3d 468 (2d Cir. 1999), the Second Circuit affirmed a judgment for a female probationary volunteer firefighter, Victoria Pietras, who was terminated for repeatedly failing a newly instituted physical agility test that included dragging a 280-pound water-filled hose 150 feet.[7] The district court had found the test had an unlawful disparate impact on women and ordered Pietras reinstated as a probationary firefighter while permitting the fire district to develop a nondiscriminatory test; the Second Circuit agreed.[7]"
