Timeline

1972

Keechant L. Sewell (born April 2, 1972) is an American former police officer and administrator who served as the 45th New York City Police Commissioner, the first woman and third black person to serve in the position.

On June 12, 2023, Sewell announced that she was stepping down as commissioner.

No reason was given for her departure.

On November 2, 2023, the New York Mets announced that Sewell would become their senior Vice President of security and guest experience.

Sewell was raised in the Queens neighborhood of Long Island City, including at the Queensbridge Houses.

She later lived in the Queens neighborhoods of Corona and Jamaica.

1997

In October 1997, Sewell became a police officer assigned to Nassau County Police Department's Fifth Precinct.

2008

In 2008 Sewell had attended the FBI National Academy, and other assignments included the Professional Standards Bureau, Internal Affairs, and training with the FBI to be the county's chief hostage negotiator.

2016

Sewell was eventually promoted through the ranks to become the commanding officer of the 7th Precinct and then, by 2016, commanding officer of the major case squad.

2020

On September 24, 2020, Sewell was promoted to NCPD's chief of detectives, commanding a staff of approximately 350 officers.

Sewell was also a member of the New York–New Jersey Joint-Terrorism Task Force.

On December 14, 2021, it was announced that Sewell would be appointed as the 45th New York City police commissioner by Mayor-Elect Eric Adams.

She became the first female commissioner of the New York Police Department, and its third black commissioner.

She oversaw 35,000 uniformed officers and 18,000 civilians.

On January 1, 2022, Sewell was officially sworn in as first female commissioner of the New York Police Department since it was founded 176 years beforehand.

She is the highest ranking woman in NYPD history.

Sewell was criticized for publicly accepting the appointment in front of a mural of Assata Shakur, convicted of killing a police officer.

Sometime during late May 2023, the Police Commissioner and other members of the Adams administration devised a plan using a web portal to seek the public's input on solving cold cases where members of the LGBTQ+ population, especially cis-gender gay men, were victimized.

On June 12, 2023, Sewell resigned as Commissioner of the NYPD.

While no reason was given for her resignation, The New York Times reported that she had lost power to City Hall, noting that the Adams administration required its approval for police promotions and handpicked the first deputy commissioner and chief of department.

Adams in a statement said, "I want to thank Police Commissioner Sewell for her devotion over the last 18 months and her steadfast leadership. Her efforts played a leading role in this administration's tireless work to make New York City safer. When we came into office, crime was trending upwards, and thanks to the brave men and women of the NYPD, most of the major crime categories are now down. The commissioner worked nearly 24 hours a day, seven days a week for a year and a half, and we are all grateful for her service. New Yorkers owe her a debt of gratitude."

PBA President Pat Lynch stated that Sewell, "took over a police department in crisis and faced tremendous challenges from day one. She cared about the cops on the street and was always open to working with us to improve their lives and working conditions. There are still enormous challenges facing the NYPD. Her leadership will be sorely missed."

At the time of her appointment as New York City Police Commissioner, Sewell was residing in Valley Stream, New York.
