A veteran NYPD detective is off the job after admitting he faked police reports by claiming he interviewed victims — when he actually blew them off and lied to his bosses about it.
Michael Baer, 31, admitted that he filed phony reports in three cases dating to 2019 in a plea agreement filed Monday in Manhattan court.
