NYC to appoint first woman Police Chief

Incoming New York City mayor Eric Adams has announced that his City’s Police Force will be led by a woman.

Keechant Sewell, 49, a 23-year-old Nassau PD veteran will take charge of the NYC Police Department after Adams takes Oath on January 01.

With Sewell’s appointment, Adams will fulfill his campaign promise of giving a woman the charge to lead NYC’s Police Force.

The NYPD is the largest Police Force in the United States, and with crime soaring under outgoing Mayor Bill de Blasio, Keechant Sewell has an uphill task and a lot of expectations to fulfill.

Mayor-elect Adams, a former NYPD Captain, has said that women in the Department are often “sitting on the bench” and are never allow to “get in the game.” That is “stopping” today, he announced.

While being the first woman to lead NYPD, Sewell will also become the third Black commissioner to lead the Police Department. Sewell will focus on rebuilding the Department’s relationship with City residents, along with the rioters occasionally threatening the City for personal gain.

Sewell, like Mayor-elect Adams, has vowed to stay focused on fighting violent crime that has plagued the City, like most Democratic-run cities, since the death of George Floyd.

BLM rioters have already threatened mayor-elect Adams against any measures that would reinforce Police activities in the City. The Mayor however, has remained resolute and is determined to fulfill what he has always promised and what New Yorkers want. The rule of law.

Adams stated that he also defeated a person who wanted to disarm the Police. His election win shows what the people of New York City wanted. Their verdict makes it clear that they support no radical ideas which would allow criminals to rule the City.
