STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Danny Juliano, a civilian employee of the NYPD, is accused of embezzling $366,380 from the Woodbrooke Estates Homeowners Association in Rossville and then claiming that he used the funds to buy pool supplies.

Juliano, 50, of Acorn Court in Woodbrooke Estates, who works for the Property Clerk Division of the NYPD, has been indicted on charges that include grand larceny and criminal tax fraud, according to statements from District Attorney Michael E.

After pleading not guilty at his arraignment in State Supreme Court before Justice Stephen J. Rooney, Juliano was released on his own recognizance on Wednesday.
