NYPD officer from Oceanside pleads not guilty in murder-for-hire case
Posted June 6, 2019
[...]
The obstruction of justice charge stems from Cincinelli allegedly destroying two cell phones and the records that they contain as a way to impede the investigation, according to the indictment.
Cincinelli’s attorney, James Kousouros, of Manhattan, told the Herald after her plea that there was more to the story than the details that have been brought to light.
“Our investigation has begun,” he said, “and as the facts really emerge here as to what occurred, we believe that it will become clear that Ms. Cincinelli never would and never did participate in the conduct that she’s charged with. She’s entitled to the presumption of innocence and we should not forget that she’s a decorated veteran of the Police Department with no criminal record.”
A key person who led to the FBI’s charges against Cincinelli was labeled “CS,” meaning confidential source, according to court documents. He was later identified as John DiRubba, 54, of Howard Beach, Queens, who is the defendant in a separate grand larceny case, according to the Daily News
[...]
Cincinelli’s alleged plan began in February, when she asked DiRubba to hire a hitman to kill Carvalho and his own daughter, according to the FBI. Carvalho filed for divorce from Cincinelli in January after four years of marriage, and the two were in the middle of a custody battle. The reason Cincinelli wanted DiRubba’s 15-year-old daughter out of the picture was because she impeded her spending time with him, according to the New York Post.
[...]
Cincinelli was assigned to the 106th Precinct in Queens in 2007. She has been working modified assignments since 2017, according to police, such as being assigned to a unit that monitors surveillance feeds in public housing developments after several domestic incidents — including one in which she lost her badge and gun after visiting an ex-boyfriend’s house while on duty. Cincinelli has two ex-husbands, each of whom filed restraining orders against her, and she filed one against Carvalho.
DiRubba has his own legal issues to worry about, as he has been accused of allegedly threatening to shoot a man over a $54,000 diamond ring on Jan. 15. The case is pending.
On Friday, Federal Magistrate Gary Brown ordered that Cincinelli remain in prison without bond, where she has been held since her arrest on May 17 and deemed a danger to the community. She is due to appear in court again on June 26.
