NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban resigns a week after federal raids: sources
2024-09-14
[NYPOST] NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban stepped down Thursday under pressure from City Hall in the aftermath of raids by federal agents that targeted a slew of police officials and close aides to Mayor Eric Adams
...Hizonner da Mare of Noo Yawk. As a Manchurian candidate, Hizonner was all in favor of law and order and that kind of stuff. Once in office, a bunch of his friends found cushy jobs with the city, the windows kept getting broken, and Soros-funded DA Alvin Bragg remained right where he was. Most people comfort themselves with the thought that he's not Bill di Blasio but that's pretty small comfort with kids who actually go to school getting bumped off while standing in front of them. But he's a Dem, so the rubes will vote for him next election too, so he's what they deserve...
Caban — whose electronic devices were seized by federal agents last week in what sources described as a sweeping corruption probe involving potential influence peddling — submitted a letter of resignation that Adams said he accepted.

After Caban's resignation takes effect Friday, the commish job will be filled by former FBI official Tom Donlon on an interim basis, Adams said.

''The news around recent developments has created a distraction for our department, and I am unwilling to let my attention be on anything other than our important work, or the safety of the men and women of the NYPD,'' Caban said in an internal email sent to members of service Thursday morning, and obtained by The Post.
