The Mollen Commission  

Definición

  • The Mollen Commission was established by then-New York City Mayor David N. Dinkins in 1992 to investigate alleged police corruption in several New York Police Department (NYPD) precincts after an NYPD officer named Michael Dowd, along with five other officers, was arrested in the suburban area where he lived by Suffolk County Police for trafficking illegal narcotics inside and outside of New York City. The Mollen Commission, empowered by a mayoral executive order, was a panel of investigators comprised mainly of attorneys that was independent of the New York City government and the NYPD. The Mollen Commission was named after the chairperson, Milton Mollen, who was a deputy mayor in New York City and a retired New York State appellate judge.
