NYPD pride celebration marred by Mayor Adams' no-show
Keechant Sewell’s sudden resignation—and the mayor’s abrupt cancellation of his scheduled appearance at the event.
Although the mayor was scheduled to attend the event—even after Sewell had already announced her plans to leave the force—Hizzoner was a no-show, crossing-off his planned appearance 25 minutes prior to his expected arrival. The sudden schedule change came as reports indicated that the mayor and police commissioner had not been seeing eye-to-eye regarding her role, with some sources saying that Adams had been restricting her ability to make free, unrestrained choices. Still, the event appeared to continue as planned with several speeches and musical performances.
