The photo of a bloodied police officer punched in the face by a criminal in the Bronx is now featured on a page that highlights cops’ disciplinary records, The Post has learned.
Rookie officer Mary Fay was allegedly slugged in the face by repeat offender Ernst Delma, 41, when she tried to break up a fight between him and a group of kids on a Clason Point street corner around 7:10 p.m. Aug. 1, officials said.
The photo was posted on the website 50-a.org, under Fay’s profile, sometime after the assault.
“Shame on these anonymous cop-haters who are hiding behind their computer screens and posting this photo of our injured sister in her most difficult moment,” Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry said.
“This entire site is an underhanded attempt to smear cops in order to sabotage their personal lives and post-NYPD employment prospects.”
The PBA is up in arms about the photo, and other behavior on the site that tracks the disciplinary history of cops. It’s unclear who runs 50-a.org. Messages to the website weren’t immediately returned.
Police officers’ employment records are now published on several publicly searchable government databases, and the site appears to collect the information from them.
“If the people behind this site don’t see a problem with pumping out unfounded allegations and unflattering photos of police officers, they should subject themselves to the same scrutiny: reveal their identities and allow police officers to hold them accountable and correct the misleading information on their site,” Hendry said.
The site presents substantiated Civilian Complaint Review Board filings as fully adjudicated in a big blue box near the top of each officer’s profile.
But many police officers who are accused by CCRB are later found not guilty in the NYPD Trial Room at One Police Plaza.
The PBA is in the process of filing a complaint with 50-a.org’s domain registrar about the publication of inaccurate information and the officer’s photo.
The only contact information available on the site is the email address f12@50-a.org. “F12” is an abbreviation for “F–k 12,” in which “12” is street slang for police, a police source said.
