Banks’ name was included in 2014 FBI affidavits seeking wiretaps in an investigation of Hamlet Peralta, a Harlem businessman.

Yellow Flags

Mayor Eric Adams faced criticism that he was creating a culture of nepotism by hiring his younger brother to serve as a deputy NYPD commissioner.

Critics accuse the Manhattan Institute of being a right-wing think tank, which has supported the Broken Windows theory of policing. Broken Windows focuses on minor offenses. As a result, people earning low or fixed incomes and POC become ensnared in over-policing that critics describe as racist.

First Deputy Commissioner Edward Caban "was accused of cheating on his sergeants exam nearly 30 years ago — and was disciplined in four other misconduct cases," according to a review of police files obtained by The New York Post.
