NYPD's Top Cop Resigns Amid Sex Scandal

New York City's top uniformed officer, Chief Jeffrey Maddrey, has abruptly resigned following explosive allegations of sexual misconduct. A female subordinate, Lt. Quathisha Epps, claims Maddrey demanded sexual favors in exchange for overtime pay. The allegations, detailed in the New York Post, include claims of forced sexual acts.

Epps, who herself is under investigation for high overtime pay, alleges multiple sexual encounters with Maddrey. Maddrey's lawyer vehemently denies the claims, calling them a convenient attempt to deflect attention from the investigation into Epps's own finances.

This scandal comes as NYC Mayor Eric Adams, a former police captain and Maddrey's ally, is also facing federal charges. The situation has triggered a department-wide review and highlights a growing wave of controversies within the Adams administration.
