D.A. Bragg Announces Guilty Plea and Sentencing of Former NYPD Officer for Assault in Holding Cell
“Today former Sergeant Dejesus admitted to assaulting an individual in a holding cell and never reporting the incident. Members of the NYPD work hard day and night to keep us safe, and they must make quick and difficult decisions every day. In an instance where misconduct does occur, we must follow the facts to ensure the law is upheld and help build stronger law enforcement and community relations,” said District Attorney Bragg.
