GOVERNOR SKIPS CEREMONY FOR NYS COP OF THE YEAR
The plaque they gave Kelsey Francemone says it’s from the governor, but he didn’t give it to her.
He’s through town all the time, and could have presented it on his next visit, but when you’re a governor like Andrew Cuomo, you don’t want to be photographed next to a white cop who shot a black man.
You don’t want that coming back to haunt you in the middle of a presidential run.
So the first female cop and the first Syracuse cop ever to be honored as New York’s officer of the year had to take the plaque from the lieutenant governor.
But that’s how it’s gone.
