NY Dem accused of menacing also forced aide to hide COVID sickness, threatened her with child services call: complaint

A politician in suburban New York recently accused of saying she’d “slice” a “bitch” colleague’s throat is facing new claims she forced an aide to keep a COVID diagnosis secret.

Tasha Diaz, the Yonkers City Council’s Democratic majority leader, is facing more bullying claims from a former legislative worker who said Diaz even threatened to call Child Protective Services on her.

“Councilmember Diaz created an extremely toxic work environment during my tenure in Yonkers City Hall,” ex-legislative aide Jenika Delgado wrote in a complaint filed with City Hall and obtained by The Post.

“Her behavior included regular use of violent language and threats at myself and others as well as berating for small issues that she perceived as poor performance,” it added.

The new accusations come less than a week after fellow Councilwoman Corazon Pineda-Isaac filed a complaint over Diaz’s menacing , which included claims the majority leader threatened to “smack the taste” out of her mouth.
