"During that time, each of the officers and Captain Newlin are alleged to have submitted signed time sheets that were inaccurate and overestimated the time they were actually present at work."
"This charged misconduct was billed to the taxpayers and undermines public trust and operational safety."
Eleven jail guards, including a captain, face criminal charges for allegedly submitting fraudulent timesheets claiming they were working while absent. Capt. William Newlin reportedly received over $50,000 from this scheme. The Bronx District Attorney's office stated that the officers' timesheets inaccurately reflected their presence at work, with some indicating full days of absence. The misconduct occurred during a period of staffing shortages in the Department of Corrections, undermining public trust and operational safety. The total amount stolen is estimated at $228,000 for one year.
