Designates sheriffs, under-sheriffs and deputy sheriffs of the city of New York as police officers

This bill amends New York State law to officially designate New York City's sheriffs, under-sheriffs, and deputy sheriffs as "police officers" within the criminal procedure law. It changes legal references to clarify that these officials perform policing functions under the same classification as sworn police officers. The key mechanism is updating specific sections of the criminal procedure law to include these NYC sheriff roles in definitions previously limited to traditional police officers. This change affects NYC sheriff's department personnel by aligning their legal designation with police officers for procedural purposes. The bill takes immediate effect upon enactment.
