New Records Show the NYPD’s Favored Punishment: Less Vacation Time
In some of the NYPD’s most severe misconduct cases, the only punishment officers faced was losing vacation days.
Hasnain says:
Looking through some of the data and … ugh.
“The department limited disclosure to cases where officers were judged guilty or pleaded no contest in its trial process — some of the most severe cases.
What those records show is that the most common form of punishment was docking vacation time. In some 89% of the cases made public, reduced vacation time was one of the penalties levied, and in more than 60% of the cases it was the only punishment. Officers in the database can have multiple cases filed against them.”
