Mayor Adams called allegations the NYPD’s top uniformed cop traded sexual favors with an underling for massive overtime pay “extremely concerning and alarming.”
“The police commissioner is doing a full review of all personnel, but sheâs also doing a full review of this issue, and it would just be inappropriate for me to go into the detail of these allegations, but itâs currently under review,” the Mayor told reporters Saturday at an unrelated event in Brownsville, Brooklyn.
“I have a great deal of faith and the city has a great deal of faith in Police Commissioner Tisch, sheâs conducting her review internally, and weâll make the determination on how weâre moving forward with these allegations.â
The allegations, exclusively revealed by The Post, include salacious claims from Lt. Quathisha Epps that Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey demanded “to have anal sex, vaginal sex, oral sex. He was always asking me to kiss his penis.â
Maddrey, who denied the accusations, resigned on the spot after inquiries from The Post.
âI think that he resigned, and that resignation was handed in immediately, and anything thatâs going on further with the resignation, that should go through his council, and the police commissioner for observationâ,” Adams said Saturday.
The mayor walked away without saying anything further when asked if Maddrey’s resignation was an admission of guilt.
