NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell Resigns, Leaving Behind Mixed Legacy

Keechant Sewell, the first woman to lead the NYPD, is stepping down from her position as commissioner. It is unclear when she will leave or why she made the decision. During her brief tenure, she oversaw a decrease in some categories of crime, including murders, while contending with several high-profile crises. Mayor Eric Adams thanked Sewell for her service to the city, work he said earned her a "debt of gratitude."
