BENJAMIN Levy" says the report.
"who had never been convicted of n
crime, testified that at the request Of
officials in the detective bureau, he
had often induced criminals to com
nit burglary in order that they might
be arrested. He was strongly corro-
boratcd by reputable citizens. includ-
ing an official of an insurance com
pany. merchant and others.
Levy testified that in one case
Deputy Commissioners Dougherty, in
charge OF the detective bureau, gave
him s25 with which to purchase burglar
tools. and after he succeeded in the
burglary paid him SIS for his services.
City vouchers for these amounts In
LEWIS favor were found in the comp
troller, office.
Deputy Commissioner Dougherty and
others involved were subpoenaed by us
and asked t. waive immunity before
giving their testimony. This they re-
fused. with one exception, and thew
were not interrogated. Notwithstand-
ing the shocking nature of this testi-
mony and the corroboration received
the commissioner has taken no action
whatever in the premises. 1t Is not
surprising that under such lax dis
cipline some detectives turn thieves"
In conclusion. the report says the
bureau is hopelessly inefficient and
should be reorganizcd along drastic
lines.
