“The recent allegations published in the New Yorker regarding Congressman Michael Grimm’s conduct as an FBI agent are too troubling to be ignored.”
“If these charges are true, it’s clear that Congressman Grimm abused his power as a law enforcement official and violated the civil rights of several New Yorkers. This deplorable behavior is not worthy of a member of Congress or any elected official. Additionally, leaving these allegations unanswered would be a disservice to the exceptional and brave members of law enforcement agencies in our city who put their lives on the line to protect all New Yorkers.”
“A matter this serious cannot be brushed under the rug. As a representative to the people of Staten Island and Brooklyn, Congressman Grimm has an obligation to fully address these allegations by letting the whole truth come out. I urge the Congressman to join me in calling on the New York City Police Department and the Justice Department to release all records surrounding this incident in order to provide a full accounting to the public.”
