Mayor Bill de Blasio promised Thursday a “full investigation” into reports that the names of several active NYPD officers were found on an email list belonging to the right-wing Oath Keepers, a militia group tied to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
WNYC/Gothamist reported Thursday that the email list had been released by a nonprofit group known as Distributed Denial of Secrets which releases leaked information to members of the press. A review of the list found several NYPD officers “whose names matched information listed in the hacked records,” though it could not be confirmed if the officers were still active.
