The City Council has called for an investigation into the use of the NYPD’s official social media accounts after some brass have used them to

Speaker Adams wants the IG to “urgently conduct an official investigation and review that produces a subsequent report on the NYPD’s policies, practices and operations related to its use of social media.” She believes that high-ranking NYPD officials have used the official accounts to target “public officials and members of the public in ways that can be construed as intimidating, dangerous and veering into political activity, in conflict with city laws and policies.

Chell, Kemper and Daughtry accused Siegel of purposely publishing misinformation in an effort to slur the NYPD. After the Daily News corrected some factual errors in Siegel’s column, the NYPD posted on its official account a word of thanks to the Daily News, but also called Siegel “Deceitful.”, who challenged Mayor Eric Adams about allegedly “fearmongering” subway crime in an interview on radio’s The Breakfast Club.

“From my point of view, if you are going to go after our cops and say nonfactual things, if you are going to dismiss a cop’s death on a radio show, we are going to respond back,” Chief Chell said at an April 2 briefing. “We are going to start pushing back and I think the issue is people are not used to it.”
