n NYPD cop who sued over the city’s COVID vaccine mandate can’t be fired for not having the jab, according to a new ruling.
An NYPD cop who sued over the city’s COVID vaccine mandate can’t be fired for not having the jab — according to a new “precedent-setting” ruling that could help over 20 other police officers in their cases, The Post has learned.
The city first denied the request for religious exemption from Deletto, who is Catholic, on Feb. 15, and later shot down his appeal with only “does not meet criteria” given as an explanation, according to his lawsuit. Deletto — a nine year veteran of the force who works out of the 88th Precinct in Clinton Hill — filed suit the day before he was set to be fired on Aug. 5 for not getting vaccinated.Bluth then granted a temporary restraining order, allowing the father of five to stay on the force pending her decision.
“He feels vindicated,” the attorney said, adding that Deletto can now breathe “a big sigh of relief.” “These are people that were heroes during COVID that put their own safety at risk to help the city of New York and this is how the mayor treats them?” he said. “It’s an absolute disgrace.”
