43. Jeff Frayler/Gary DelaRaba
2006 Power List
The two are the designated thorns in the side of each county executive and are often the conscience of the police. Frayler, president of the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association, and DelaRaba, president of the officer’s union for Nassau, often battle with Levy and Suozzi, respectively, over contracts, and nag top cops to do right by their members. DelaRaba is currently fighting Suozzi in court over money owed to his union board, but the last time Frayler made big news was when he won his fight to restore staffing levels for the 2nd Precinct overnight shift.
