By Ryan SchwachThere is a new sheriff in town after Edwin Raymond was sworn into the role on Monday. “Sheriff Raymond is a man who has dedicated himself not only to protecting the safety of the people of New York City but [also] to bettering the institutions tasked with that work.” “I can think of no one better to serve as the sheriff of the City of New York,” added the mayor. “Sheriff Edwin Raymond understands that public safety requires public trust, and he has always fought for the transparency and accountability our communities deserve,” James said. Investigators found unaccounted for cash inside safes at the sheriff’s office in Long Island City.
