8 City Officers Charged in Gun Smuggling Case
October 25, 2011 The New York Times By WILLIAM K. RASHBAUM and JOSEPH GOLDSTEIN
Eight current and former New York police officers were arrested on Tuesday and charged in federal court with accepting thousands of dollars in cash to drive a caravan of firearms into the state, an act of corruption that brazenly defied the city’s strenuous efforts to get illegal guns off the streets.
The officers — five are still on the force, and three are retired — and four other men were accused of transporting M-16 rifles and handguns, as well as what they believed to be stolen merchandise across state lines, according to a complaint filed in the case in Federal District Court in Manhattan.
The current and retired officers, most of whom at one time or another worked in the same Brooklyn station house, were arrested at their homes before sunrise by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and investigators from the Police Department’s Internal Affairs Bureau, officials said. Also arrested were a New Jersey correction officer, a former New York City Sanitation Department police officer and two men identified in the complaint as his associates. 8 City Officers Charged in Gun Smuggling Case,

whopronom sujet ≠ whompronom objet
The people Ø I admire musically are people who content themselves with one period.
Backstage, William Christie,
Dans cet énoncé, iIl y a 2 propositions relatives déterminatives :
on remarque tout d'abord l'ellipse ( Ø ) du pronom relatif objet that entre people et I (sur le schéma de l'énoncé bien connu The man Ø I love...).
La proposition (that) I admire est une relative déterminative : elle détermine The people.
L'énonciateur (ici le chef d'orchestre William Christie) ne parle pas de toutes les personnes ou des gens en général (people), mais seulement des musiciens qu'il admire :
The people I admire musically (GN complexe).
Sans cette relative, people resterait indéterminé, indifférencié, hors-catégorie :
people = les gens en général, notion illimitée, infinie.
people fait l'objet d'une seconde détermination, introduite par le pronom relatif sujet who :
people who content themselves with one period. (GN complexe).
When Simon Rattle, whom I do admire greatly, does Rameau he stops everything else and immerses himself in it.
Backstage, William Christie,
La proposition relative ci-dessus, introduite par le pronom relatif objet whom, est non déterminative. Elle est encadrée par des virgules qui jouent le rôle de mise entre parenthèses.
L'information contenue dans whom I do admire greatly, n'est pas nécessaire pour comprendre qui est le référent de l'antécédent (Simon Rattle > référent = célèbre chef d'orchestre britannique).
Simon Rattle est un nom propre, auto-déterminé, à l'inverse du nom indéterminé people (voir énoncé précédent).
Simon Rattle se suffit ici à lui-même; il n'a besoin d'aucune détermination / définition.
Traduction explicative : Quand Simon Rattle, qu'entre parenthèses j'admire beaucoup, dirige Rameau...
La relative non déterminative whom I do admire greatly peut être supprimée sans nuire au sens premier de l'énoncé :
When Simon Rattle does Rameau he stops everything else...

Dora Saint, a k a Miss Read of Fiction Fame, Dies at 98
April 14, 2012 The New York Times By MARGALIT FOX
Dora Saint, whose novels [ adjectif génitif relatif = Dora Saint's novels ] about the gentle rhythms of English village life, written under the crisp, pedagogical pseudonym Miss Read, drew a wide following on both sides of the Atlantic, died on April 7 at her home in Shefford Woodlands, in Berkshire, England. She was 98. Dora Saint, a k a Miss Read of Fiction Fame, Dies at 98,
Only to recall that era, and the Edwardian one that preceded it, is to realise how complete has been the eclipse of monarchy, and how great its attenuation even in Britain. When she was born, there were real-live Hohenzollerns, Romanoffs and Hapsburgs, all of them related to the gloomy Saxe-Coburg-Gothas and Battenbergs into whose house [ pronom relatif au génitif ] she was wed. And she lived to see unclean laundry run up the Buckingham Palace flagpole, while her grandchildren failed to stay married and her eldest daughter's dominions either became independent states or - even in the home islands - contemplated doing so. Quite a facer for the last Empress of India.
Mourning will be brief:

proposition relative non déterminative
When Simon Rattle, whompronom relatif objet I do admire greatly, does Rameau he stops everything else and immerses himself in it.
Backstage, William Christie, WSJE / Personal Journal,
, whompronom relatif objet I do admire greatly, est une proposition relative non déterminative, qui ne crée pas de sous-catégorie.
Simon Rattle n'a pas besoin d'être déterminé / catégorisé / différencié car ce nom propre a un référent bien connu : Simon Rattle = chef d'orchestre célèbre
Cette proposition relative non déterminative n'apporte pas d'information essentielle, elle ne fait qu'exprimer l'avis de l'auteur.
Elle pourrait être supprimée sans nuire au sens de l'énoncé :
When Simon Rattle does Rameau he stops everything else and immerses himself in it.

man whose family was found murdered...
The Guardian p. 4 2 September 2006
...whose family was found murdered
est une proposition relative déterminative, qui détermine un nom commun - man - en apportant une information essentielle à la compréhension de l'énoncé :
man whose family was found murdered is held at Heathrow.
Comme toute proposition relative déterminative, elle ne peut pas être supprimée :
??? man is held at Heathrow serait presque vide de sens, incompréhensible.
