    Just guessing: Still NYPD with promotions or retired with pensions… now Imma go read the article.

    From the article: “The Indypendent calculates that since 2014, these same six officers have received over $7.5 million in salaries (plus overtime) from the city, an expenditure that increases substantially when including pensions and health care.”

    I’m shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

    There’s also this line here: “Carr is also trying to sustain the national momentum for police reform, which has waned since the 2020 George Floyd protests. This past spring at the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, Carr along with relatives of Floyd and Tyre Nichols, denounced the lack of commitment by elected leaders.”

    I remember when Biden mocked the Defund The Police movement in his first SOTU, and not a single “liberal” batted an eye.
