Chris Monahan is the President at NYPD Captains Endowment Association. Recently, he blasted unnamed “elected officials” in a vitriolic letter to members Saturday, complaining that due to a lack of leadership, police are damned if they crack down on law-breaking George Floyd-death protesters, and damned if they don’t.
Later, Chris Monahan said “They do not have your back and will use you as a political pawn!” the emailed letter says in bold type of the offending unnamed pols. Additionally, he said “My assessment is ‘Hands off the protester/looter you will be assaulted by them. Hands-on the protester/looter you will be assaulted by our elected officials.’ BE CAREFUL!” it warns.
