The Sergeants Benevolent Association (SBA) says NYPD Sergeant Kizzy Adonis did everything right the day now-fired officer Daniel Pantaleo placed Eric Garner in the chokehold that would lead to his death. That includes making sure Garner was breathing and an ambulance was on the way before she left the scene.

"Sgt. Adonis arrived seven to ten seconds after the alleged chokehold was concluded,” said Ed Mullins, the president of the SBA. “She never saw the alleged chokehold, had no knowledge it even happened until hours later, when she was shown a video by the Internal Affairs Bureau."

But Adonis was brought up on departmental charges for failure to supervise.

This week, after Pantaleo was fired, she agreed to a settlement, allowing the NYPD to take away 20 vacation days, but without her admitting any wrongdoing.

Her union says the Police Department made her a scapegoat because she was a new supervisor at the time and was easy to target.

 “Kizzy Adonis is innocent, she never pled guilty,” said Mullins.

Police were trying to arrest Garner for allegedly selling loose, untaxed cigarettes on Staten Island.

Garner denied wrongdoing and resisted arrest.

Standing at the spot where here son died, Gwen Carr and her supporters demanded that more police involved in the arrest be disciplined.  

“I will fight this system as I have been for five years and if it takes five more, 10 more or 20 more, as long as I have breath in my body, I will fight this system,” said Carr.

Police commissioner James O’Neill says he handled the discipline process correctly and no additional cops will be held responsible for Garner’s death.

“The message is there’s accountability in the NYPD,” said O’Neill. “That’s what the message is. The PBA has been very critical of me and that's fine.”

Both the SBA and the Police Benevolent Association say O’Neill didn’t stand up for the police and they claim Mayor de Blasio forced him to fire Pantaleo. O'Neill says the decision was his.

"The fact of the matter is, the members of the NYPD do not respect you,” said Mullins. “Commissioner O'Neill, I ask you, for the good of this department, I urge you to do what is right and resign immediately."

So far, O’Neill has not indicated that he plans to step down.
