  • This hooker was used to bribe NYPD cops with group sex

    This hooker was used to bribe NYPD cops with group sex

    new york postThe hooker at the center of the NYPD corruption scandal has revealed to The Post how she engaged in mile-high group sex with two cops and three other men during a wild private-plane trip to Las Vegas.

    According to New York Post Gabi Grecko donned a skimpy flight attendant outfit to service now-disgraced NYPD Deputy Inspector James Grant, since-fired Detective Michael Milici and the others while flying over the American heartland in February 2013, she claims.

    She was hired by a pair of businessmen to entertain Grant in exchange for official favors, according to a federal corruption case filed against him this week.

    Grecko, 27, told The Post she performed oral sex on each man in the cabin — sometimes simultaneously having sex with more than one of them.

    “I was doing it while they were in their seats,” Grecko recalled.

    “It was me on top the whole time. Front, behind, side. They all seemed really comfortable to take their pants off in front of each other and laugh about it. It’s like they’d done this before.”

    Grant’s co-defendant, Brooklyn businessman Jeremy Reichberg, directed the sexcapades, shouting out instructions and providing running commentary, she said.

    “He wasn’t really part of the action. He was just like setting it up and watching. He got serviced for part of the time, but he was mostly just egging it on and saying nasty comments, instructing me what to do sexually,” she said.

    “He’d call me a dirty slut while smacking my a- -.”

    She said she had no idea Grant and Milici, who were in civilian clothing, were cops, although they jokingly swung handcuffs.

    “I didn’t think they were real,” she said. “They were just waving them around, like to put them on me. I was like, ‘No way.’ ”

    Grecko, who is cooperating with the feds against Grant and Reichberg, said her outfit came from a costume shop near Union Square. Reichberg took Grecko there and helped her pick it out before the trip, she said.

    “I was supposed to be a sexy stewardess. I’d ask: ‘Tea or coffee?’ ” she said.

    “They all wanted me, I guess, and not the tea or coffee.”

    Grecko initially thought the in-flight entertainment would be limited to “sitting on people’s laps and drinking with them.”

    “I didn’t think it would be as extreme as it was, but then because I obviously couldn’t get off the plane, I had to do what they were telling me,” she said. “More than one would try to get my attention at once. They were really creepy and very rude and offensive.”

    Grant kept shouting, “Ma’am, I need service over here!” she said.

    And they were a bit picky.

    “One of them told me that I wasn’t giving a good b- – -job,” Grecko added.

    Grecko’s tale expands on allegations in the criminal complaint unsealed Monday that Grant and Milici joined the Mile High Club during the “first-class plus” flight.

    It also expands on other allegations in the complaint against Grant, Reichberg and NYPD Deputy Chief Michael Harrington, who is not alleged to have been on the flight.

    The feds say Reichberg and a cooperating witness — identified by sources as his pal Jona Rechnitz, a Manhattan real estate investor — invited Grant to join them in Sin City from Feb. 2 through Feb. 4, 2013, for Super Bowl XLVII.

    Also on the trip was Grant’s friend Milici, referred to in court papers as “Detective-1,” an unidentified male “associate” of Rechnitz’s and Grecko, whom the feds call “Prostitute-1.”

    The four identified men are all married with children.

    Reichberg and Rechnitz arranged for Grecko “to come on the private jet and spend the weekend with the group in Las Vegas,” the Manhattan federal court complaint says.

    Law enforcement agents who interviewed Grecko “confirmed, among other things, that [she] was engaged to accompany the persons on the trip and that Grant and others took advantage of her services during the trip,” the complaint says.

    Rechnitz footed the $59,000 bill for the jet and scored comped rooms for the cops and paid for their meals, the complaint says.

    Grant shared his room with Grecko, according to the feds.

    Rechnitz wasn’t reimbursed, but the feds say Grant performed “numerous official acts” for him and Reichberg, including “regularly” providing them with police escorts.

    Grecko said the group stayed at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino.

    Most of the men shared a huge duplex penthouse suite, equipped with a hot tub on its terrace, while Grant and Grecko shared a smaller penthouse, she said.

    The group watched the Super Bowl in a private section of a large party room in the hotel, where they were joined by a bevy of local hookers, Grecko said.

    Everyone binged on champagne and catered food, and Grecko said the men bet heavily on the San Francisco 49ers — who lost to the Baltimore Ravens, 34-31.

    The group then returned to the large penthouse for a late-night orgy with other hookers, who got naked and hopped into the hot tub, Grecko said.

    “When I came in, there were all these nude girls . . . They were walking in and out from the balcony,” Grecko said.

    “They didn’t pressure me too much into doing it that time because there were all these girls.”

    LAS VEGAS — Las Vegas, where the only design rule seems to be that everything must mirror something else, is getting a new mall modeled on Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar.

    Construction began this week on the Grand Bazaar Shops outside of Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. The 2-acre outdoor mall is expected to open next fall on the corner of Flamingo Road and Las Vegas Boulevard, in the heart of the Strip.

    Developer Larry Siegel describes the project as a sanitized, glitzed-out version of a traditional Middle Eastern market.

    “They’re really interesting places where people can gather, and it’s a real experience in terms of sights and sounds and smells. That’s what we’re trying to create here in a more sophisticated, modern way,” he said.

    The walking mall will feature a spice market, a butcher shop and the first Swarovski store that will allow customers to haggle over crystals.

    Other hyper-specific themes rolled out on the Strip this year include an Eastern European glass factory-themed theater and a China-themed casino, which is expected to include a replica of the Great Wall of China and house live pandas.

    The Grand Bazaar Shops will consist of about 150 small retail spaces, half of which have already been leased. It will be competing with several other Strip malls, including the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, with about 160 stores, and the Miracle Mile Shops at the Planet Hollywood casino, with 170 stores.

    The Bazaar team is not alone in betting on increased interest in Las Vegas retail. Last month, the Treasure Island hotel-casino announced it would end its free pirate show to make way for new shops, which are also expected to open in the fall of 2014.

    Business has never been better at Strip malls, according to David Hoenemeyer, president of Bally’s, Paris and Planet Hollywood, all owned by Caesars Entertainment Corp.

    “The customer these days is looking for more than the gaming experience,” he said. “The customer’s changed, and though gaming may be on their mind, it’s not always on the forefront.”

    It remains to be seen whether tourists will brave the 107 degree heat common in the Las Vegas summer to shop at stores they could find at indoor malls a few casinos over. Hoenemeyer insists that misters will make up the difference, and says in any case, it’s dry heat.

    If the concept works, Siegel, who’s developed malls in Canada and Spain, says he plans to open Grand Bazaars in other cities.

    “I think people will come from all over Las Vegas and beyond to experience this,” he said.
