Lindy Jones Sentenced in Officer Diller Case | New York City News
Description
Lindy Jones, 44, sentenced to five years for hiding a loaded gun in his car during a March 2024 traffic stop in Far Rockaway — the same night his passenger, Guy Rivera, fatally shot Officer Jonathan Diller. Jones pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a weapon; Rivera, already convicted of aggravated manslaughter, faces 115 years to life. The DA called Jones’ choice to carry the gun a sobering reminder of gun violence’s toll, and praised the team for closing the case without another trial — sparing Diller’s family further pain. Diller, posthumously promoted to detective, died in the line of duty.
