Why is police staffing such of a shit show? Honest question. I mean I can’t believe that a PSA has zero officers assigned to it but it’s true and here we are.

The department is short over 600 cops, thats not counting those on sick or injured leave too. Why would anyone want to be a cop in the city when you could work in the suburbs for better pay, less workload, and a more receptive population?

If there weren't so many on sick leave there'd be more staffing....
