NYPD Inspector Who Told Fellow Officer That He Wanted To Make 'Biracial Babies' With Her Suspended; Here's Why
NYPD Inspector Jeremy Scheublin was suspended on July 4 following a lawsuit from a female officer alleging he s*xually assaulted her in his office in 2025. The plaintiff claims he also retaliated against her after she reported the incident. Scheublin, who filed for retirement last month, maintains the allegations are false and plans to contest them in court.
New York City Police Inspector Jeremy Scheublin has been suspended from the force, following a high-profile lawsuit filed by a fellow officer alleging s*xual assault and workplace harassment. The suspension was confirmed by an NYPD spokesperson on Saturday, July 4, marking a significant development in a case that has been under public scrutiny for months.
Allegations of Assault and Retaliation
According to legal documents filed in the Bronx Supreme Court, the incident occurred on January 1, 2025, while both officers were on duty at the 46th Precinct. The plaintiff, a 34-year-old officer and mother of two, alleges that Scheublin - a 24-year veteran of the department - attacked her inside his office.

The complaint describes a violent encounter in which Scheublin allegedly grabbed the officer, threw her onto a couch, and attempted to remove her equipment while making unwanted s*xual advances. The officer reported that she managed to escape by physically fighting back. She further alleged that after the assault, Scheublin told her he wanted to "make biracial babies" with her. The lawsuit also details a pattern of alleged harassment leading up to the assault, including inappropriate comments about the officer's appearance and unwanted inquiries into her personal life. Following her report to the Internal Affairs Bureau, the officer claimed Scheublin retaliated by altering her shift assignments and, as alleged in court filings, attempting to bribe her into silence.
Departmental Response and Legal Proceedings
The NYPD had previously placed Scheublin on modified duty in March 2026, stripping him of his badge and weapon, following the filing of the lawsuit. However, critics, including the plaintiff's attorney John Scola, have argued that the department’s response was insufficient. "Our client had the courage to report the assault immediately, but the NYPD lacked the courage to remove Inspector Scheublin from full duty even after referring the case for criminal investigation," Scola stated in response to the news of the suspension. The department reportedly offered to transfer the victim to a different precinct, an offer she declined. Scola noted in court motions, "A victim of a s*xual assault should not be punished by being forced to uproot her career."

Retirement and Defense
The suspension occurred shortly after Scheublin filed for retirement last month. Scheublin's attorney, Oliver Storch, maintained that the timing of the suspension was administrative. "The NYPD suspended him after he filed for retirement," Storch said, explaining that his client chose to leave the force "to not be a further distraction to the NYPD and to concentrate on addressing the hurtful and false allegations in the lawsuit." Storch added that Scheublin intends to "address all accusations in the appropriate forum and asks the public to withhold judgment until conclusion of the process."
