Veteran NYPD Police Officer Fired for Hitting on 'Vulnerable' Women During Arrests
NYPD veteran fired for hitting on women during busts
A cop who survived a line-of-duty shooting was fired from the NYPD after he repeatedly tried to hit on vulnerable women during arrests, according to a newly released disciplinary finding.
Over four days in 2018, Officer Michael Kreiman tried to start a romantic relationship with a woman he arrested for grand larceny, flirted with a woman he believed was a domestic abuse victim and subjected a woman he thought was a drug-addicted prostitute to a series of lurid questions about her sex life, according to the NYPD report.
However, the domestic abuse victim and the prostitute were actually undercover officers conducting "integrity tests" as part of an Internal Affairs Bureau investigation. These are tests conducted to provoke a reaction from law enforcement officers in a typical police situation.

Over the past decade, Kreiman was repeatedly accused of violating NYPD rules, and nearly lost his job in 2015 when the department put him on "dismissal probation" after drug paraphernalia and hypodermic needles were found in his locker.
He was instructed in a letter "to avoid inappropriate personal relationships with civilians connected to law enforcement action" following several complaints. He still continued to exchange numbers and phone calls with a woman he arrested on Oct. 30, 2018 for grand larceny in hopes of sparking a romantic relationship with her, according to the report. He even met the woman once and talked with her as they drove around in his vehicle.
