Two women who worked for disgraced ex-NYPD honcho Jeffrey Maddrey are ensnared in the federal probe of the sex-for-overtime scandal, The Post has learned.
The homes of Detective Ingrid Sanders, Maddrey’s former driver, and Detective Ada Reyes were raided by investigators, law enforcement sources said.
“The FBI came to their doors, executed search warrants, issued grand jury subpoenas and has identified them as subjects in the investigation,” one of the sources said. “They’re in the center of this s–t storm.”
The probe by the US Department of Justice’s Southern District of New York is focused whether federal funds were misused to pay for stolen overtime, sources told The Post.
The two women aren’t considered targets in the investigation and aren’t facing charges, sources said.
The probe was launched after The Post’s Dec. 21 front-page expose about the NYPD’s top overtime earner Lt. Quathisha Epps. She filed a federal complaint against Maddrey, then the department’s top uniformed cop, alleging he used OT to coerce her into performing “unwanted sexual favors” between June 2023 and Dec. 16, 2024.
Epps, 51, raked in a shocking $400,000-plus last year, about half in OT, records show. Maddrey has repeatedly insisted through his attorney that their sexual relationship was consensual.
Epps shared the sex allegations in excruciating detail with The Post — calling the then-chief of department a “predator.” Maddrey stepped down after The Post contacted the NYPD for comment.
“He wanted to have anal sex, vaginal sex, oral sex,” Epps said. “He was always asking me to kiss his penis.”
Epps told The Post Maddrey, a close friend of Mayor Adams, allegedly targeted her because she was having money problems and had been a victim of incest as a child.
Epps worked with Maddrey as he moved up in the department from chief of housing to chief of patrol and then chief of department.
Sanders, who joined the department in 1993, made an eye-popping $163,414 in OT last year — and resigned days after The Post exposed her boss’s alleged conduct at police headquarters.
Reyes, who also worked for Maddrey, was transferred to public housing after The Post’s expose. She made $42,500 as a new police officer in 2019 — but her pay jumped to $154,405 in 2024, including $55,923 in overtime, city records show.
Both Sanders and Reyes have hired lawyers, a union official said.
“This all falls on Maddrey,” the source said. “This is a supervisory issue. This is coming from the top of the department on down. In fact, its emanating from City Hall on down.”
Since the allegations emerged, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch has been cleaning house, ousting dozens of NYPD brass on Dec. 28 in a shocking purge, beginning with bosses at the department’s Internal Affairs Bureau.
Lawyers for Sanders and Reyes didn’t immediately return messages.
