We know why they keep happening. We let the NYPD do whatever they want with no consequences. Remember the Civilian Review Board? We created it, I guess. But did we get them power? Did we free them from intimidation from the Thin Blue Line? No.

The NYPD should be under investigation by the Feds at this point. Dissolved and rebuilt. It's too rotten.

The NYPD's sex crime unit is actually currently under federal investigation. They failed to perform basic investigations, misreported sexual assaults as less serious crimes or intimidated/coerced victims into not reporting their sexual assaults because the detectives wanted to cash their paychecks without doing any actual work.

I notice Adams has done nothing to address this. I guess attempting to lower the crime rate doesn't include sex crimes.

All of this detectives should be charged for OT fraud and defrauding taxpayers since they happily collected their salary while refusing to do basic work. What the fuck were they doing instead of working???

In my experience, what they were doing was trying to convince people not to report their sexual assaults because it's too much paperwork. I guess we can call "intimidating victims not to report crimes" to be a kind of work. It occupies their time, anyway

Rape kits aren’t tested because cops are rapists

All you need to do is so voting for Democrats.

They have done nothing to stop police brutality but morons keep voting them in.

No, actually. Cops are civil servants with weapons. I don't care how large or small an infraction is, they need to be held accountable for ALL OF IT. There is no such thing as a frivolous lawsuit against a defacto military force we allow to police and manhandle citizens. If your solution to the problem is to just let cops get away with bad behavior for free, you're not actually trying to solve anything.
