NEW YORK - New York Police Department Commissioner James O’Neill will step down to take a new job in the private sector, he said on Monday, about three months after his decision to fire an officer accused of using a banned chokehold that caused the death of a black man.
O’Neill, who was appointed in 2016, said criticism leveled at him for his decision in August to throw Daniel Pantaleo off the police force, five years after the death of Eric Garner in New York’s Staten Island borough, was not a reason for his leaving.“It wasn’t a motivating factor in my decision,” O’Neill said. “I’m not going to stand up here and say it didn’t weigh on me heavily.”
The Police Benevolent Association , which represents NYPD officers, blasted O’Neill for firing Pantaleo. O’Neill’s next job is in the private sector, de Blasio said. O’Neill declined to provide further details, saying only that it was “something I couldn’t pass up.”
