Mt. Kisco Parking Enforcement Officer Pleads Guilty to Larceny
The Mount Kisco parking enforcement officer who was arrested last May for allegedly stealing about $89,000 in parking meter revenue from the village pled guilty on Tuesday to two felony counts.
Jeffrey Daday, 36, of 15 Sun Valley Drive in North Salem, faces one count each of second-degree grand larceny and first-degree offering a false instrument for filing. He faces up to 15 years in prison when he is sentenced on Dec. 23.
From January 2009 until he was arrested on May 6, 2014, Daday emptied meters and deposited some of the money, usually in the form of quarters, into his bank account at the People’s United Savings Bank on South Moger Avenue, according to the office of District Attorney Janet DiFiore.
To this point, an investigation has revealed that more than $89,000 was stolen by Daday.
Mount Kisco police were alerted to the thefts and were joined by investigators from the district attorney’s office to engage in surveillance over an undisclosed period of time.
On May 6, Daday was confronted by police as he left the bank branch after making a deposit and was subsequently arrested.
