The cancellation of four academy classes by the Adams administration threatens to further reduce the uniformed headcount, likely to below 30,000 for the first time since the 1990s.

Wow, based Adams?

Nah, but it's a funny unintended consequence for the cop mayor data-laughing

Eh, most police departments have basically been doing this on purpose to drastically increase overtime. Pension payouts are based on average compensation of your last 3 or so years before retirement. Cops have basically been conspiring to make sure that retiring officers earn more than double their salaries before retirement so they can drain the public even when they're done working.

And you can't get overtime if there's adequate staffing.
