Former NYPD commissioner Ray Kelly is speaking out publicly for the first time about a Rikers Island inmate’s plot to behead him and bomb police headquarters some 16 years ago.
The chilling plot was ultimately stopped thanks to the work of an undercover officer — with Kelly lauding him and other such investigators as unsung heroes. “Every time something happens, how the police commissioner backs the police up. That kind of like got me frustrated to the point where I want him murdered.”
“I don’t see how you’re comfortable with yourself wanting to take somebody’s life,” he says in the episode. Brown told Byam he needed Kelly killed immediately: “I want his head chopped off,” he was heard saying, according to the documentary.
