"As a board member, Dr. Khalid participated in voting to substantiate allegations against officers, and according to the PBA, he has among the highest numbers of votes against officers of all, at 95% from January to September. The blatant bias at the CCRB makes it harder for cops to protect New Yorkers, the PBA wrote on X. The board is stacked with members who vote against cops almost 100% of the time."
"As a Board Member with a conflict of interest, Dr. Khalid improperly participated in those panels and undeniably influenced the outcome of countless cases where CCRB substantiated and recommended discipline of alleged misconduct. His participation in these determinations are extremely problematic as substantiations are used as the basis for charges against the officer, as well as the ultimate disciplinary determination by the NYPD,"
Dr. Mohammad Khalid resigned as chair of the Civilian Complaint Review Board following sustained demands for his removal by the Police Benevolent Association. The PBA cited Khalid’s voting record, claiming a 95% rate of votes substantiating allegations against officers from January through September, and labeled the board’s actions blatantly biased. The PBA also alleged a conflict of interest from Khalid’s simultaneous role on Staten Island Community Board 2, arguing his participation invalidated cases he oversaw. The union sent a removal letter to Mayor Eric Adams on Oct. 31; Khalid’s formal resignation was announced by the CCRB on Nov. 7.
