The police officer whose PBA card allegedly incited the jealous rage of Hiram Monserrate is married and denies knowing Karla Giraldo, the state senator's girlfriend who needed 40 stitches to heal from Monserrate's alleged attack. The Post claims that longtime NYPD vet Water Loor is the man whose card has been used as evidence in Monserrate's ongoing assault trial. Monserrate is seen throwing the card down the trash chute on the surveillance video where he apparently drags Giraldo down the stairs. The Post says investigators determined that Loor's relationship with Giraldo had nothing to do with his job or the violent incident.
