A 13-year-old brain-cancer survivor famously sworn in as a Secret Service agent by President Trump notched another impressive lawman title Tuesday — New York City’s deputy mayor for public safety.
Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel of Houston, Texas, has already collected more than a thousand law-enforcement badges — and netted his latest honorary title as the Big Apple’s top mayoral liaison on public safety at a touching City Hall ceremony.
“He has moved across the country doing what he loves, and you know in this city, public safety has always been this administration’s top priority,” Mayor Eric Adams said of DJ.
