In 2019, the Crime commission honored James P. O'Neill, NYPD Commissioner (accepted by the NYPD Chief of Department, Terence Monahan). Distinguished Service Award The Distinguished Service Award is reserved for individuals who have demonstrated an ongoing commitment to criminal justice innovation. In 2019, the Crime Commission honored Lauren Resnick. The event was held overlooking the city on the 35th floor of the Mutual of America building, where representatives from New York City's law enforcement and business communities joined the Crime Commission in paying tribute to the honorees. |
