Summary
NYPD Assistant Chief James McCarthy’s home was raided by Internal Affairs and the FBI amid a corruption probe, prompting him to file for retirement the next day—though he was already slated for mandatory retirement in 2026. Allegations of bribery and misconduct dating back years have led to his placement on modified duty, with Assistant Chief Melissa Eger stepping in. The investigation, involving the NYPD, FBI, and U.S. Attorney’s Office, also reportedly targeted two other former top officials: ex-Chief Jeffrey Maddrey and former Deputy Commissioner Tarik Sheppard. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch confirmed the probe is ongoing and covers conduct by both current and former officers. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
