Federal authorities raid homes of New York City’s interim police comissioner – Washington Examiner
Federal authorities recently conducted raids on the home and workplace of Thomas Donlon, the interim commissioner of the New York City Police Department (NYPD). The operation occurred shortly after the resignation of his predecessor, Edward Caban, amid an ongoing corruption investigation. Donlon confirmed the raids in a statement, noting that the items seized were unrelated to his current role and had been in his possession for about 20 years. He emphasized that the situation is not a departmental issue and that the NYPD would not provide further comments. The deputy mayor for communications, Fabien Levy, reiterated the expectation for cooperation with law enforcement inquiries but offered little additional information.
Federal authorities raid homes of New York City’s interim police comissioner
The New York City Police Department‘s interim commissioner, Thomas Donlon, revealed that federal authorities raided his home and work Friday.
The raid comes just one week after Donlon’s predecessor, Edward Caban, announced his resignation amid a corruption investigation. Donlon announced the raid in a statement through the NYPD.
“On Friday, September 20, federal authorities executed search warrants at my residences. They took materials that came into my possession approximately 20 years ago and are unrelated to my work with the New York City Police Department,” the statement read.
“This is not a department matter, and the department will not be commenting,” it added.
New York City’s deputy mayor for communications, Fabien Levy, was similarly opaque with details.
“As we have repeatedly said, we expect all team members to fully comply with any law enforcement inquiry,” he said.
Donlon, a security expert with an extensive background in national security and working with the FBI, was appointed interim police commissioner by Mayor Eric Adams as a stabilizing move amid growing chaos surrounding investigations into the city.
Citing sources familiar with the matter, the New York Post reported that authorities were looking to see if Donlon had taken classified materials during his work with the FBI.
The deluge began in November 2023, when the FBI raided the homes of two Adams associates. Adams’s phone and iPad were seized days later. In July, the mayor was served two Grand Jury subpoenas. Several other associates have been raided and investigated by federal authorities.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Department of Justice, FBI, Internal Revenue Service, and the city Department of Investigation all have investigations into Adams, though it isn’t clear what crimes they are focusing on.
