The former head of the NYPD school safety bureau was charged Thursday with taking tens of thousands of dollars in bribes from a self-described “sugar daddy” seeking a lucrative city contract for his school shooting response app. Kevin Taylor, 52, ensured that Florida-based company Safewatch got a $19,830 contract — with no competing vendors — for a pilot program in September 2023, in exchange for the cash and perks from its CEO, Gino Roefaro, according to an indictment unsealed in Manhattan federal court. Kevin Taylor, promoted to lead the NYPD’s school safety bureau under Mayor Adams, took bribes, the feds allege.
