NEW YORK (AP) � New York City Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell, the
first woman to hold the position, is stepping down after 18 months on
the job.

Sewell, who was appointed by Mayor Eric Adams, announced the resignation
in an email to department staff Monday afternoon.

�While my time here will come to a close, I will never step away from
advocacy and support for the NYPD, and I will always be a champion for
the people of New York City,� she wrote.

Adams, a Democrat, confirmed the move in a statement, thanking Sewell
for her �steadfast leadership.�

Sewell took over as commissioner when Adams, a former NYPD captain,
became mayor in January 2022, having pledged beforehand to name a woman
to the post.

During her brief tenure, she oversaw a decrease in some categories of
crime � including murders � while contending with several high-profile
crises, including the fatal shooting of two officers during her first
month on the job. In a statement, Patrick Lynch, the president of the
Police Benevolent Association, said her leadership would be �sorely
missed.�

Sewell shied from New York's spotlight, rarely making herself available
to press, even as Adams has made crime-fighting a centerpiece of his
administration.

She also faced speculation that she was not truly in control of the
department, fueled in part by Adams� decision to appoint a former NYPD
chief and key ally, Phillip Banks, as a deputy mayor of public safety.
Banks has been holding weekly public briefings on crime, often without
Sewell in attendance.

NYPD commissioners often serve abbreviated tenures in one of the
highest-pressure, most politically challenging jobs in policing.
Sewell�s predecessor, Dermot Shea, was in the post for two years. His
predecessor, James O�Neill, lasted three. Before that, William Bratton
served less than three years in his second stint as commissioner, having
served for just over two years under Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

The notable exception is former commissioner Raymond Kelly, who served
for 16 months under former Mayor David Dinkins, then returned and was
commissioner for all 12 years that Michael Bloomberg was mayor.

Sewell started with the Nassau County Police Department as a patrol
officer in 1997, then became a precinct commander, head of major cases,
a top hostage negotiator and finally chief of detectives, where she
oversaw a staff of about 350 � about 1% the size of the NYPD�s unformed
ranks.

In his statement, Adams said Sewell deserved credit for combatting crime
in New York City.

"The commissioner worked nearly 24 hours a day, seven days a week for a
year and a half, and we are all grateful for her service. New Yorkers
owe her a debt of gratitude.�

The Adams� administration has seen a series of high-profile departures
in recent weeks, including his top housing official, Jessica Katz, and
the city�s efficiency officer, Melanie La Rocca.
