Inspector Hussey, of the New York Police Department, was called to account for fudging an investigation into a complaint by Mr. Louis Bowsky in 1910: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F06E3DF1530E233A...

lifeasdaddy, thank you for this information! We will clarify the name in the source data and reload the description.

This is Inspector James Hussey , my grandfather Raymond Hussey's (b 1912) uncle, I remember as a kid him telling me how his Uncle Jimmy the cop, did some jail time on Blackwell's Island for taking a bribe

This is interesting Stephen. Do you have any more information about when "Uncle Jimmy" was born? The sources I've been able to find simply refer to him as "Inspector Hussey."

Captain James E. Hussey, he was suspended in February 1913 (New-York tribune., February 07, 1913, Image 1, with photo). He was found guilty in may 1913 (New-York tribune., May 07, 1913, Image 1). In March 1914, he was set free but immediately rearrested on bribery charge (The evening world., March 06, 1914, Final Edition, Image 1, co. 3) In 1915 he was reinstated to the Police Departement, a decision against which was appealed, and Hussey wanted to retire if the reinstatement would be confirmed (The evening world., July 31, 1915, Final Edition, Image 3, col. 2)

I really enjoyed going through all these wonderful photos. It's great to look in the past.

Forever...! Great!

he sure was handsome
