An NYPD sergeant with a six-figure income has been arrested and suspended without pay after allegedly shoplifting $15 worth of cough syrup and drops from a Target store on Long Island in two separate incidents.
Sgt. Rayna Madho, a 41-year-old NYPD veteran, has served in various units since joining the force in 2006, earning more than $200,000 in fiscal 2024, including overtime of about $55,000, NY Daily News reported.
Every arsonist wants to be a fireman; every thief wants to be a cop...
Sometimes the checkout lines or staffing makes me leave stuff and go elsewhere to buy.
Target demanded I prove I was over 18 years of age when I bought a package of old Randolph Scott westerns as they were considered “Unrated”. I was 66 at the time.
Sad when good old westerns from the 1940s and 1950s are considered the same as PORN rated NR, (Not Rated.)
Maybe he wanted to drink it with a few green olives in it like a Martini.
Pic at link. I had to look.
If you’re reading this and guessing, you would be right.
The things that happen when you don’t have your race card with you.
When I want somethin’ man I don’t wanna pay for it.
Drat that.
Why did I know it was a woman...
Sounds very stylish.
New Yorks finest.
This raises a good question. Many here have good morals, wouldn’t lie, cheat, etc.
Where exactly did you get these good morals?
Undocumented reparations. I bet there is a massive chip on her shoulders.
Hey, if folks are allowed to take up to $1000 worth of free stuff, why should cops be treated any differently?
It’ll be curious to see if her double get-out-of-jail-free-cards will save her from being fired.
Money is tight everywhere! Even $200,000 NYPD gots to economize!
An NYPD spokesman declined comment except to confirm she was suspended without pay.
She previously was assigned to the photo unit, detective squads in the 7th and 13th Precincts and two commands in Brooklyn, according to 50-a.org.
She has been a defendant in five civil lawsuits that settled for a total of $161,000. In one of those suits filed in 2019, video allegedly showed Madho dropping a pill bottle in a car while her police partner arrested motorist Abdul Pullium back in 2015, Gothamist reported.
Pulliam’s lawyer alleged the video showed officers planting the bottle, Gothamist reported. The suit settled for $7,500, a relative drop in the bucket when compared with other police settlements.
Madho joined the force in January 2006. She was promoted to detective and sergeant in 2013 and to detective squad commander in 2021.
In a March social media post for Women’s History Month, the Sergeants Benevolent Association said Madho was born in Trinidad, moved to the U.S. at age 12 and graduated from York College.
