class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former New York Police Department officer Eduardo Cornejo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Until his termination from the NYPD last month, Cornejo was an 11-year veteran of the NYPD who, at the time of the charged conduct, was on modified assignment and before that assigned to the 79th Precinct in Brooklyn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Cornejo became a pimp after he finished working with the NYPD, officials said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cAs alleged, the defendant betrayed the trust of the residents of the city he swore to protect,\u201d stated U.S. Attorney Capers.\u00a0 \u201cRather than seeking to eradicate crime from the streets of the city, the defendant promoted prostitution and profited from his exploitation of women.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The FBI and the Internal Affairs Bureau of the NYPD investigated this case, officials said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cThroughout his alleged criminal actions, Cornejo not only abused the public trust given to him as an NYPD officer, but he showed no human decency when he facilitated the exploitation of women for profit. \u00a0Police officers, like all public servants, are held to a higher standard, and should not violate the very same laws they are supposed to enforce,\u201d said <strong>FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Diego Rodriguez.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20124

metropolitan area, including parts of Long Island and New Jersey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Cornejo allegedly committed these crimes right after leaving his work with the NYPD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">As further detailed in the complaint, law enforcement got a wiretap and\u00a0intercepted statements by Cornejo that showed his commission of the crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">For example, officials noted that in one such statement Cornejo talked\u00a0about\u00a0the way he divides money with the prostitutes he employs and also stated that, if he were to stand outside a motel door with \u201ca bunch of girls,\u201d law enforcement would \u201cknow what\u2019s up real quick.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
