On Friday, October 24, 2025, following a long-term investigation, the New York State Police arrested retired Trooper Thomas H. Mungeer, age 56, for Grand Larceny 3rd degree, a class D felony.
The investigation determined that between March 5, 2018, and October 4, 2022, while serving as the President of the New York State Troopers Police Benevolent Association (NYSTPBA), Mungeer misappropriated union funds for personal use and expenses, thereby depriving the NYSTPBA of those funds.
The arrest took place at the Troop G Headquarters in Latham, NY, and Mungeer was arraigned before the Honorable Thomas Marcelle in Albany City Court and was released pending his next court appearance in Albany County Superior Court on December 1, 2025, at 9:30 a.m.
The State Police were assisted in the investigation by the Albany County District Attorney’s Office.
