Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch ousted dozens of NYPD bosses in a
shocking Saturday purge, beginning with the department’s Internal Affairs Bureau, a week after The Post revealed that top cop Jeffrey Maddrey was allegedly trading overtime for sex at police headquarters.
Deputy Chief Chris Morello, the No. 2 boss at the famed watchdog bureau
whose mission is to weed out bad cops, was removed from his post,
paperwork obtained by The Post shows.
This comes a week after IAB’s top boss, Chief of Internal Affairs Miguel Iglesias, was ejected the day of the Dec. 21 expose in The Post.
Inspector Joseph Profeta, who was head of IAB’s Group 1, was booted
Saturday to Patrol Borough Brooklyn North, the documents show. The group investigates allegations regarding NYPD brass with the rank of captain or above.
“Tisch means business,” a high-ranking source said. “She’s cleaning up the
mess and putting the department back on track.”
The moves were made because of a “lack of oversight” by IAB, the source
said.
Inspector Michael Ricciardi of IAB Special Ops was also ousted and sent to Patrol Borough Manhattan North, the orders show.
Another dozen IAB bosses, ranging from lieutenants to sergeants, were sent packing to far-flung precincts across the city, the documents show.
Six members of Maddrey’s office — five detectives and one police officer —
were also booted in the bloodletting, most of them sent to walk the beat
in public housing, the documents show.
The sweeping changes come after The Post revealed in a Sunday front-page
story that Chief of Department Maddrey was allegedly granting overtime for
sex to Lt. Quathisha Epps, who raked in a total of more than $400,000 in
2024.
“If you want to show that you are genuinely trying to change the face of
the department and get rid of all of Maddrey’s cronies, this is the best
way to do it,” a police officer with more than 20 years on the job said.
Earlier this month, Tisch ordered 500 officers who had been “improperly transferred” to go back to their regular assignments, an internal police
memo obtained by The Post shows.
The practice was known as “telephone message transfers” and led to a lack
of boots on the ground in some areas and therefore slower response times,
the Dec. 9 memo stated.
Epps claimed in graphic detail in an exclusive interview with The Post
that Maddrey, the highest ranking uniformed officer in the NYPD, coerced
her to have sex in his office between eight and 10 times, in exchange for
the massive overtime.
Her lawyer, Eric Sanders, filed a discrimination complaint with the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission, a precursor to a lawsuit.
Maddrey abruptly retired the day of The Post report.
He claimed through his lawyer on Friday that he had a “consensual, adult relationship” with Epps, but denied her accusation of “coercion.” The
lawyer, Lambros Lambrou, said Maddrey had no authority to sign off on
overtime pay.
In response, Epps’ attorney told The Post, “This clown is a f–king
disgrace. We have a treasure trove of digital data that will hopefully
bring this degenerate to justice.”
