New York City Police Commissioner Edward Caban, who has served in the NYPD for 33 years and was appointed by Mayor Eric Adams last year, is expected to leave his role after the FBI searched his home and seized his cellphone last Wednesday. Politico reported that at least six other NYPD officials linked to Adams also had their residences searched and phones taken. Despite these rumors, Caban told CBS on Monday that claims of his resignation were &#8220;false,&#8221; even as he prepared for a meeting with NYPD leadership regarding this matter.<\/p>\n<p>Caban&#8217;s twin brother, James Caban, also had his phones confiscated and is under investigation by the FBI for alleged influence peddling related to Edward&#8217;s position. During a press conference on Monday, Mayor Adams expressed support for Caban but acknowledged uncertainty about whether he would continue as commissioner when asked about it.<\/p>\n<p>Edward Caban is among several individuals in Adam\u2019s close circle who have faced scrutiny from the FBI over the past ten months; however, this investigation appears distinct from one concerning Adam\u2019s alleged connections with Turkey during his 2021 mayoral campaign. This latter inquiry became public in November 2023 when federal agents raided homes of individuals close to Adams involved in that campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Some politicians have suggested that the FBI&#8217;s investigation into Adams and those around him may be politically motivated due to tensions between him and President Biden over immigration policies affecting New York City. Nonetheless, there is limited evidence supporting claims that this investigation constitutes a &#8220;witch hunt,&#8221; as described by Democratic state Senator Leroy Comrie last year<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3142,"featured_media":2338952,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Edward-1.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[36661,35993,4133,6703,6522],"class_list":["post-2338951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-eric-adams","tag-fbi-raids","tag-news","tag-nypd","tag-resignation"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Edward-1.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3142"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2338951"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2338951\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2338952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2338951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2338951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2338951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
