Thomas Donlon

Thomas Donlon, a former interim police commissioner of New York City, is currently in the news for suing Mayor Eric Adams and his administration, alleging that they operated the NYPD as a 'criminal enterprise.' In his lawsuit, Donlon accuses Adams of promoting unqualified loyalists, suppressing misconduct allegations, and punishing whistleblowers. His brief tenure as commissioner was marked by claims of systemic corruption within the department, which he alleges was facilitated by the mayor's inner circle.
