The police reform advocates - including a former top NYPD chief - pressed Commissioner Jessica Tisch this week to withhold the letter while the soon-to-retire Maddrey is under federal scrutiny in a sordid sex-for-overtime scandal.
Any officer who is engaged or more than likely engaged in corruption, sexual assault, sexual harassment, criminal obstruction or any other act that is contrary to honor and nobility must not be issued a 'Good Guy Letter,' particularly if that officer is an executive ranking officer.
Maddrey temporarily lost his gun access after Tisch suspended him Thursday amid a federal raid on his Queens home by investigators looking into accusations he traded sexual favors with an underling for astronomical overtime.
Retired cops often parlay their good standing with the NYPD and firearm access into well-paid work in private security and consulting.
