Manhattan DA’s detective arrested for faking expenses

A detective on the Manhattan District Attorney’s Squad was arrested yesterday for getting phony petty cash reimbursements, authorities said.

Michael Bazerman, 40, was charged with grand larceny and forgery for the crime that took place between 2009 and 2011, said a spokesman for the Bronx DA.

The veteran detective allegedly submitted and forged falsified invoices to the Manhattan District Attorney’s office totaling $5,800.

He was arraigned in Manhattan State Supreme Court and released without bail, the spokesman said.

Bazerman is due back in court on May 20.
