    A Manhattan judge rejected a liberal legal group’s demand that the NYPD turn over photographs and tax identification numbers for “all active members” — for fear the information would turn officers into targets. The Legal Aid Society had asked the court to force the department to turn over the information to make it easier for people with misconduct complaints to identify police officers, according to court papers. But on Wednesday Judge Arthur Engoron denied the request, because Legal Aid is not “bound by confidentiality,” he wrote in his decision.
