NYPD sergeant resigned after threatening critical podcasters
A New York City Police Department sergeant resigned after being accused of making online death threats against two former NYPD officers who host a podcast critical of the department. The threats targeted the podcasters and their children. The threats, posted on Instagram under the handle "allcopsarewoke," included menacing messages and images, prompting the Internal Affairs bureau to investigate. The sergeant, Shawn Mohabir, was identified as the suspect and suspended before resigning in March. The podcast, "New York’s Finest: Retired & Unfiltered Podcast," frequently criticized NYPD leadership. The ex-cops are frustrated that the NYPD did not pursue criminal charges, and legal experts say the department could have done more.
