Mamdani Orders First NYPD Use-of-Force Review in a Decade, Announces Reforms
The review would tighten discipline for excessive-force cases and add $2.6 million for NYPD oversight, City Hall said.
- On Monday, Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced a comprehensive review of NYPD use-of-force policies, introducing new accountability measures following public outcry over disciplinary failures in the 2024 fatal shooting of 19-year-old Win Rozario.
- Officer Salvatore Alongi avoided a disciplinary trial for Rozario's death after the NYPD failed to notify the Civilian Complaint Review Board of his pension application, prompting the administration to strengthen oversight procedures.
- Reforms include a $2.6 million boost to the NYPD Office of the Inspector General, which will triple its current headcount of 11, alongside new notification systems ensuring disciplinary proceedings conclude before officers retire.
- NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch apologized for 'human error' in the notification failure, while Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry criticized the announcement Sunday as an attempt to appease the mayor's 'radical base.'
- The review will take place over the coming months with community engagement as Mamdani faces mounting pressure to fulfill campaign promises, including calls to dismantle the Strategic Response Group.
