“This wasn’t spin. It was a deliberate and defamatory attack — weaponizing mental health to silence a whistleblower and deflect from the criminal misconduct Donlon exposed,” Scola said.
The latest filing comes just days after a blockbuster lawsuit from the short-lived interim commish, accusing Adams and his cop cronies of running a massive criminal operation in the NYPD.
In the days after, the mayor and his former deputy commissioner of public information railed against Donlon, calling him a disgruntled employee and attacking his mental acuity.
Adams told a room of New York business people Thursday that Donlon refused to take a cognitive test and claimed his former commissioner was “mentally not fit.”
Tarik Sheppard also made similar attacks on Donlon while appearing on Pix11.
