Controller Of Law Enforcement Union Pleads Guilty To Filing False Tax Return
June 4, 2025 // OSTERMANN served as Controller of a union that represents all current and former sergeants of the NYPD (the “Union”). OSTERMANN also served as a partner of HB Consultants Inc. (“HBC”). In 2018 and 2019, OSTERMANN paid $150,000 from HBC’s bank account to a third party on behalf of the former President of the Union. OSTERMANN then prepared HBC’s U.S. income tax returns, and falsely reported that the $150,000 payment was for legal fees. This false information not only disguised that OSTERMANN had used HBC-funds to make payments on behalf of the former President of the Union, but also fraudulently reduced the tax liability of HBC and its partners, including OSTERMANN.
