“O’Neill’s unjust termination of P.O. Daniel Pantaleo was merely the final straw: both men have displayed an appalling pattern of malfeasance and nonfeasance that disqualifies them from continuing to serve in their current offices.â€
The bitter relationship between the New York Police Department (NYPD) and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio continues to grow.
The Police Benevolent Association, the NYPD union, voted no confidence in de Blasio and Commissioner James O’Neill due to the firing of Daniel Pantaleo. He is the officer involved in the death of Eric Garner back in 2014.
O’Neill fired Pantealeo “after he faced disciplinary charges for recklessly using force by chokehold and intentional strangulation in connection with Mr. Garner’s death.â€
