FBI raids NYPD sergeants union Manhattan headquarters





https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/ny-fbi-sergeants-benevolent-association-raid-investigation-20211005-4mn4i2uf2zh2famn36qyqu6m2i-story.html



Federal investigators descended Tuesday on the Lower Manhattan headquarters of the NYPD’s Sergeants Benevolent Association, the union headed by fiery and controversial president Ed Mullins, the Daily News has learned.

While the details of the probe remained under wraps, an FBI spokeswoman confirmed to The News that the agency was “carrying out a law enforcement action in connection with an ongoing investigation” into the SBA.

A spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York declined to comment.

The feds were combing through the offices of the NYPD sergeant’s union, pictured here on Worth Street in Manhattan, in connection with an ongoing investigation on Wednesday morning.

The union is headed by Mullins, a brash leader known for his over-the-top social media attacks on NYPD leadership and Mayor de Blasio. Mullins, a member of the NYPD since January 1982, took over as head of the SBA on July 1, 2002.

Treating the pension fund and expense accounts like so much cash seized from a suspected dealer and put straight to a sergeant's pockets....

They go out of their way to recruit militia and right wing asses to the police, they are a danger to society and need to be stopped.
