Over 2,500 NYPD Officers Resigned in 2023 Alone, Setting Alarming Record

Crime in the Big Apple is about to get worse.

New reports reveal that upwards of 2,500 NYPD officers resigned in 2023 alone.

This is the 4th highest number within the last 10 years.

But here’s the thing: the year isn’t over.

At the rate resignations are going, 2023 could be the worst on record.

This means that the last decade has set an alarming record of mass resignations.

With crime skyrocketing and illegal immigrants flocking to NYC, the city could be unrecognizable in just a few months.

Crime is already at historic highs.

Shoplifting, drug use, gang violence, and homelessness pervade the streets.

This is what you get when Democrats, who control NYC, promote #DefundThePolice and the #ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards) movement.

And who will suffer?

The innocent people in New York City who still have common sense.

The people who didn’t vote for this mess!

As for everyone else, well, they’re getting what they voted for.

BREAKING: Over 2,500 NYPD officers have turned in their badges and left the force in 2023 thus far.

This is what happens when you don’t stand with your officers and treat them like criminals for doing their jobs.

One of the things I didn’t realize until the subway psycho killing. NYPD has a list of the 100 worst offenders. They could stop them. Just remove them. That’s how easy this stuff is to fix. In a huge city like NYC, with millions of people, you only need to render 100 or so.

Update: NYC protestors have said they won't leave until they get a permanent ceasefire. NYPD stated they are overwhelmed, yet they are doing nothing as usual to remove them.

Over 2,500 NYPD officers have turned in their badges and quit in 2023.

This comes as crime is skyrocketing and police budgets are being slashed.

Democrat cities are failing.

You would think that if that many officers resigned, the city would reevaluate.

I mean, having a few hundred resign would be alarming.

Having over a thousand resign should send shockwaves through local government.

But 2,500?

That should have everyone on high alert.

And yet, NY “leadership” doesn’t seem to care.

The Daily Mail has more details:

More than 2,500 NYPD cops have turned in their badges so far this year as the force continues to struggle with a mass exodus.

The resignations are leaving remaining staff with crippling workloads as they are forced to pick up ‘inhumane amounts of overtime’, according to union leaders.

So far 2,516 NYPD cops have left, the fourth highest number rate in the past decade, the New York Post reports.

Meanwhile the number of cops walking before they reach the 20 years required to receive their full pensions has soared by 104 percent, from 509 in 2020 to 1,040.

‘The workload is a leading factor driving people away from the job,’ Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry told the outlet.

‘If the NYPD is going to survive these staffing reductions, it cannot just keep squeezing cops for more hours.’

He added that the reductions in staff were leading to cops picking up, ‘inhuman amounts of forced overtime’.
