The gangbanging son of a Westchester County police bigwig had a Bronx court date just minutes before he allegedly opened fire on a rival – with his cop mom and ex-con dad as getaway drivers, prosecutors said Wednesday.
Chase Lackard, 20, faced a judge on a 2024 gun rap just 20 minutes before the alleged June 29 drive-by gang shooting – with help from his mom, disgraced Mount Vernon Deputy Police Commissioner Jennifer Lackard, and drug-dealing dad James Lackard, according to prosecutors.
“He’s captured on cameras running into this courthouse,” Bronx Assistant District Attorney Keturah Ladd told the judge. “He had a court date and a court appearance on the third floor of this building.”
Momma’s boy Chase Lackard, a reputed member of the “Slutty Gang,” was ordered held without bail Jennifer Lackard, 49, a former member of Bronx Community Board 9, was hired in 2020 to run the suburban department’s Wellness Unit, and was fired from the job after her arrest.
Also named in the Bronx indictment is her drug-dealing ex, James Lackard, who served 10 years in federal prison for peddling heroin in North Carolina — but remains on the lam.
According to sources and news reports, Jennifer Lackard co-founded and ran a North Carolina nonprofit with her ex-con hubby, which was shut down after James Lackard’s conviction.
Jennifer Lackard moved north and joined the Bronx community board and started a new nonprofit in the borough, Re-Entry Link LLC, before she was hired to the newly created position by Mount Vernon Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard.

Are they black?? Normal sounding name.
Two possibilities:
A. Disgraced mom loses her job and her pension.
B. Disgraced mom is put on leave. Then she is called back after the dust settles.
It depends on the city. But I sure wouldn’t bet against B.
The Post has the most entertaining headlines by a country mile. Headless body found in Topless Bar of course is the GOAT.
Crime family? Not as smart 9r interesting as The Sopranos.
Off with their heads!
Three people are needed to write this article to make sure they don’t say too much.
The family that commits crime together stays together.

High maintenance culture
Ah, you know The Daily News could be creative with headlines too.

THAT front-pager was memorable......
You still have to ask this question? What do you thing the business of NGOs is - take government money claiming a worthy cause and pocket as much of it as you can, with any money going to the designated cause regarded as an unfortunate cost of doing business same as any donations required to your preferred candidate for the US Congress, mayor, governor or police chief.

The supermarket!
good democrats all!

Gangbanging NY police chief is a prime example of the Democratic political machine’s power
