The NYPD’s top uniformed cop no longer will face a controversial abuse of authority case, The Post has learned.
Charges against Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey should be dismissed, department judge Rosemarie Maldonado said on Tuesday.
Maldonado found the NYPD’s watchdog, the Civilian Complaint Review Board, acted beyond its authority when it pursued the case against Maddrey, according to documents obtained by The Post.
Maddrey stood accused of wrongfully intervening in the arrest of an ex-cop who allegedly pulled a gun on three youths.
