Former interim NYPD Commissioner Thomas Donlon has filed a federal lawsuit against Mayor Eric Adams and top NYPD officials, accusing them of operating a criminal enterprise and condoning rampant corruption in the police department. The lawsuit is one of several recent filings from former NYPD officials, alleging retaliation and corruption similar to that faced by Adams, who is seeking re-election. Donlon demands a federal monitor for oversight, while City Hall dismisses the allegations as baseless claims from a former, ineffective employee.
Donlon's suit alleges that top members of the NYPD fabricated promotions, retaliated against other members of the department, obstructed internal investigations, and used their power and connections to usurp Donlon's authority.
These are baseless accusations from a disgruntled former employee who, when given the opportunity to lead the greatest police department in the world, proved himself to be ineffective.
