Fudging Crime Stats and Revenge for the Alleged ‘Revenge’: D.I. Steven Mauriello Suing Schoolcraft
NYPD supervisor countersues whistleblower
By Rich Calder — Wednesday, March 19th, 2014 ‘The New York Post’
A scandal-scarred NYPD supervisor on Tuesday countersued whistleblower cop Adrian Schoolcraft, alleging he drummed up bogus complaints about wrongdoing at a crime-ridden Brooklyn precinct that the official once commanded as “revenge” for a bad evaluation.
Deputy Inspector Steven Mauriello filed his $2 million countersuit in Manhattan federal court, which also seeks to dismiss the $50 million suit that Schoolcraft socked the city, him and others with in 2010.
Schoolcraft claims he was forced to spent time in a mental ward after claiming cops at the 81st Precinct were fudging crime stats.
Mauriello’s counterclaim allegesSchoolcraft wanted his ex-commanderdeemed the “scapegoat” for “intentional downgrading of crime.”
“As a result of the foregoing wrongful conduct by plaintiff, Steven Mauriello hassuffered damage to his career and reputation … he has undeservedly suffered public humiliation and scorn, and has been caused to suffer extreme emotional distress,” the countersuit alleges.
Schoolcraft could not immediately be reached for comment.
