This story is a shame. A murdered cop still needs justice. I cannot do much, but I urge those who have the ability to do something. This story needs to be told and justice needs to be served.

The world lost a wonderful hero and kind soul when it lost my cousin Phillip. It is so awful that no one has ever been brought to justice. Let's hope that changes.

A son of a retired 72 Sgt, I first learned about Officer Cardillo when I saw the front license plate on a old 68 Fury black and green RMP that read 'Remember Cardillo'. I became curious and researched the incident. What I found was alarming and disturbing, to say the least. The perp is likely not living, and therefore justice was never served in this case. It amazes me that this could occur in NYC at that period in time. 'Remember Cardillo' 28 Sector George.

Now 37 years after Phil's murder our brother officers are still trying to solve this case. Long live the memory of Police Officer Cardillo.

I’m Rudy Andre a retired NYC Detective.

I was a Police Officer assigned to the 28th Precinct in Harlem when Police Officer Phil Cardillo was murdered.
I witnessed the brutal beating of Police Officer Cardillo and two other members of the NYPD. Later that day I was informed that Phil had also been shot at point blank range. Phil died from his wounds on April 20, 1972.
I lead the charge into the building first stopping where our officers lie unconscious. I recognized Police Officer Phil Cardillo. He was bleeding from his nose and mouth. I said, “Oh God please take care of him”. My actions have been well documented in the book Circle of Six as written by Randy Jurgensen. I feel this book is a major reason Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly has prompted the reopening of Phil’s murder case some 27 months ago. I know he witnessed first hand the suffering of the Cardillo family for he was assigned to guard Phil’s room at St. Luke’s Hospital during this dreadful time.
Almost 20 years after the death of Police Officer Phil Cardillo I had a chance meeting with a young man working in A&L deli in Palm Coast Fl. He recognized my miniature Detective badge and inquired if it was a NYC badge. We went back and forth for several minutes and to my astonishment this young man turned out to be the son of Police Officer Phil Cardillo. From that point Todd and I have become good friends. We have similar interest in cars and in fact he painted one of my muscle cars. I was present a Todd’s mothers funeral and was proud to be present at his wedding to Deanna. It’s amazing how fast Todd’s children Tiffani and TJ have grown.

Todd has a right to have his questions of his fathers death answered. This loving family needs to know the truth of why the city chose to cover up the April 1972 murder. The embarrassing questions need to be asked and most certainly answered. I would like to enlist your help in getting the Department of Justice to take notice in the death of Police Officer Cardillo.

I said a little prayer today for Police Officer Cardillo and his family. He may be gone but never forgotten. He will always be a New York HERO.

I read the Circle of Six as well as Murder at the Harlem Mosque. I was disgusted by the NYPD brass and the Mayor. What was even more alarming was that both Codd and Ward became Police Commissioners. It was great to hear that, after Randy Jurgensen's request, P.C. Kelly re-opened the case. I haven't heard anything about it though.

God Bless Phil Cardillo. He deserves the Medal of Honor.
REMEMBER CARDILLO.

To all those that read this - I grew up across street from the cardillo family as good friend with his children.
My parents treated his children as their own. I have not seen them in about 20 years and hope that they are enjoying life. Karma will get the guy who killed him and will deliver justice to those that did nothing. thanks God things have changed and this type of incident is highly unlikely with the NYPd anymore.

I'm just about done reading the book "Circle of Six" and it is disturbing to say the least, at what the brass(COWARDS) of the N.Y.P.D. did in order save their careers and further the career aspirations of then mayor Lindsay. While a cop killer was on the lose. Never forget Philip Cardillo.

I worked in the 34 in the 90's and had many occasion to be in the 28. Every time I walked in and saw Phil Cardillo's photo it reminded me of why I went on the job. Phil and many other Officers of his generation inspired many of us to become Officers thru their bravery and devotion to duty and each other. We might not be able to count on others to "Do the right thing", but we could count on each other. Rest easy Brother and God Bless you and your family.
