Joseph C. Hoffman was New York City’s First Deputy Police Commissioner
in the first administration of Mayor Edward I. Koch. He served in all ranks,
from patrol officer to deputy chief during his 29 year career with the New York Police Department. Post NYPD, Mayor Koch asked him to serve as President of the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation. He has written to police procedurals, Acts and Omissions, and The
Last Mayor.
According to the Acts and Omissions book description, “The investigation
of the killings takes some strange turns and hits some unexpected detours, creating serious personal and political implications
for McCabe and Russo. The Chief Medical Examiner will raise some forensic questions, the Bronx chapter of the Genovese mob
will get some unwelcome scrutiny; and the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York will eagerly jump into the investigation
when some surprising, almost inconceivable conspiracies emerge.”
