Manhattan US Attorney Preet Bharara on Monday threatened to take legal action against the city for failing to reform the problem-plagued jail on Rikers Island.
He said "questionable promotions" of officials there and the alleged withholding of information about violence against adolescent inmates have him concerned that the de Blasio administration is snubbing his demand to fix what he's called a "broken institution."
"If, as has been reported, incomplete and inaccurate information has been provided to us, and questionable promotions may have occurred, it does not instill confidence in us that the city will quickly meet its constitutional obligations," he said.
Bharara made the threat following a New York Times report claiming the city failed to provide the feds accurate information about adolescent inmate fighting on the advice of two managers, who were then promoted to senior posts.
In August, Bharara gave the city 49 days to develop remedial measures or face a Justice Department lawsuit. The city Law Department did not return requests for comment.
