An embattled member of the police watchdog Civilian Complaint Review Board — already under fire for allegedly sexually harassing female staffers — has been accused of inappropriately touching another co-worker while on a business trip to New Orleans, new court filings claim.
Bishop Mitchell Taylor allegedly got so intoxicated bar hopping with other city employees while attending a September 2011 conference in New Orleans that he doggedly made the moves on Lisa Cohen, now the CCRB's director of mediation, by repeatedly touching her "inappropriate[ly]" despite her "disapproval," including rubbing her back and putting his arms around her "upper body and shoulder."
Taylor's alleged actions are documented in a memo written days after the trip by Equal Employment Opportunity officer Marcos Soler, who claimed he was an eyewitness.
The city Law Department filed the document in Manhattan federal court last week to show Taylor's horndog history pre-dates the tenure of Tracy Catapano-Fox as CCRB executive director.
Catapano-Fox filed a bombshell wrongful termination lawsuit last year against the CCRB accusing the agency of failing to police Taylor. The suit also accuses board chairman Richard Emery of fudging statistics on the NYPD's "stop and frisk" policies to protect the department.
Soler says he encountered Taylor the following day at the Astor Crowne Plaza after the wild night, adding Taylor "told" him "he thought that he had passed out and could not remember how he got to the hotel."
"I told him that I took him. He thanked me for it," wrote Soler.
He also said Taylor was so intoxicated when he assisted him that his speech was "blurred" and Taylor almost clocked himself in the face with a hotel door.
Prior to the lawsuit, Taylor was already in hot water after being caught on camera wielding a pickax during an August labor dispute in which he allegedly threatened to kill the owner of a construction firm that is building a Howard Johnson hotel in Long Island City.
He later apologized for the pickax incident.
Taylor, leader of the non-denominational Center of Hope International church, was chosen for the 13-member CCRB by the City Council in 2008.
Taylor could not immediately be reached for comment.
