NYPD Deputy Inspector Emanuel Gonzalez, who once told cops to shoot 50 Cent on sight, has been sidelined to the Auxiliary Police Section, where he will be leading unpaid, unarmed volunteers. This sector of the NYPD helps boost police presence at parades, street fairs, and other events, but they aren't allowed to take enforcement action.
Gonzalez is facing disciplinary action for allegedly trying to shake down Love & Lust club owner Imran Jairam and force him to send items to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria ravaged the Caribbean island. Gonzalez also tried to get Jairam to buy 11 round-trip tickets to Puerto Rico, which would've cost the club $80,000, to which Jairam denied. After turning down Gonzalez, his club was targeted by the NYPD, the State Liquor Authority and other agencies, according to a lawsuit filed by Jairam against Gonzalez and the NYPD. If found guilty in an internal investigation, Gonzalez could be reprimanded by the department and lose up to 10 vacation days.
Jairam claims that he was forced to shut the club down after various summonses and violations, and he's asking for $125 million in the lawsuit that's pending in Brooklyn Federal Court. If found guilty, Gonzalez could be reprimanded by the department and lose up to 10 vacation days.
After the club was closed, 50 Cent took to Instagram to call out Gonzalez for helping shutter one of his favorite nightclubs. Once he heard about Gonzalez telling officers to shoot him on sight, Fif wrote on Instagram, "I take this threat very seriously and im consulting with my legal counsel regarding my options moving forward. I am concerned that I was not previously advised of this threat by the NYPD. #NYnotSafe#TheGangstagotabadge."
