Enforcement Official Arrested 3 Times in the Past 6 Months Finally Resigns (Not Fired)
Ms. Staniland has resigned from Police Department, a spokesman for the NYPD’s Deputy Commissioner of Public Information confirmed.
Her most recent encounter on the wrong side of the law was on July 1 when she was riding a motorcycle on Davis Avenue shortly before 11 a.m. on Staten Island. She lost control of her bike as she tried to turn onto Henderson Avenue, striking two vehicles waiting at a red light, authorities allege.
As Ms. Staniland was removing her ID from her backpack to show to police, an officer spotted drug paraphernalia including a silver spoon and a syringe, according to cops.
A search revealed four and a half pills of an anti-anxiety drug for which authorities claimed she had no prescription. Police charged her with criminally possessing a hypodermic needle, misdemeanor drug possession, and driving an unregistered motorcycle without license plates.
She had a “Little Miss Dangerous” logo on her motorcycle helmet, police said.
She was also accused of burglarizing the West Brighton home of her boyfriend’s mother on Nov. 25 and Dec. 1, according to a criminal complaint and a law enforcement source. She snatched various pieces of jewelry, including necklaces and bracelets, and hocked them for an undisclosed amount of cash on those dates at an Elm Park pawn shop, the complaint alleged. She was arrested Dec. 18 following a probe by the NYPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau.
