  Mr. TOWNS. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Steven

  Deputy Inspector Mauriello is a graduate of St. Johns University in

the Police Management Institute of Columbia University at West Point.
  Deputy Inspector Mauriello became a member of the New York City 
Police Department in the year 1989 and, upon his graduation from the 
Police Academy, was assigned to neighborhood stabilization unit number 
six as a police officer, patrolling the 25th, 28th and 32nd Precincts 
in northern Manhattan. Shortly thereafter, he was assigned to the 34th 
Precinct in Washington Heights, New York, as a patrol officer. In 1993, 
he was assigned to the Manhattan North Narcotics Division and, on 
achieving the rank of Sergeant in 1994, he was assigned to the 79th 
Precinct and Brooklyn North Warrants Unit.
  Upon his promotion to Lieutenant in 2000, Deputy Inspector Mauriello 
was assigned to the 88th Precinct and 90th Precinct until his promotion 
to the rank of Captain in 2003. As Captain, he was assigned to the 77th 
Precinct and 94th Precinct before becoming the commanding officer of 
the Patrol Borough Brooklyn North Anti-Crime Unit. In 2007, Deputy 
Inspector Maurriello was assigned to the 81st Precinct in the capacity 
of Executive Officer. In 2008, he was elevated to Commanding Officer of 
the 81st Precinct, and then was promoted to the rank of Deputy 
Inspector in which he presently serves the residents of the Bedford-
Stuyvesant community.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to join me in recognizing Steven 
Mauriello.
