Ex-NYPD cop Dwayne Montgomery pleads guilty to conspiracy in Adams straw donor case

By Ben Brachfeld Posted on February 5, 2024

Former NYPD inspector Dwayne Montgomery pled guilty Monday to conspiracy charges for his role in orchestrating a straw donor scheme to benefit Eric Adams’ 2021 mayoral campaign.

Montgomery — whom the mayor knew socially from their service as police officers — copped to fifth-degree conspiracy charges, a Class A misdemeanor, in front of Judge Althea Drysdale at Manhattan Criminal Court early Monday morning. In the plea agreement, Montgomery agreed to pay a $500 fine and submit to 200 hours of community service, which he will complete as an instructor at BKLYN Combine, a non-profit serving African-American youth from financially disadvantaged communities.
