The New York Daily News by ALISON GENDAR - May 16, 2008

An NYPD sergeant was busted Thursday for having sex with a boy as young as 12 or 13, police sources said. The victim, who is now 18, recently came forward and said he met Sgt. Jaime Katz, 33, in a mentoring program and had been having sex with him for the past five or six years, the sources said. Katz, who was president of the Gay Officers Action League in 2005, is an instructor at the Police Academy in Manhattan. The sex occurred when the cop was off-duty, sources said. Katz was arrested on his way to work yesterday and charged with criminal sex act and endangering the welfare of a child. He has been suspended from the department, sources said.
