Typical response from someone who doesn't live or work in NYC. Probably lives in in MN or some other rural town. So no, I don't think you "get it." I'm at Midt

Typical response from someone who doesn't live or work in NYC. Probably lives in in MN or some other rural town. So no, I don't think you "get it."
I'm at Midtown South on 35th between 8th and 9th Aves, closer to 9th Ave. That covers the Penn Station area up to the south portion of Times Square. Compstat says we've had 15 'verified' Transit crimes YTD at my command. That's ONE of 78 precincts. But come by and see for yourself... sit in the lobby where you can see all the suspects walked in and their charges read by the patrol supervisor. Count the number of Transit suspects that come in and then compare to the BS Compstat number that says we've had 15 for the year so far.
And please, do share where you live and work.As far as how old this account is, I got it before I went to the Academy and per Dept. regulations, I never post as a MOS. Someone should make you a Det. Specialist though--you are quite a 'special' keyboard warrior/investigator. Reminds me of Shane Gillis' uncle who made the grilled cheese sandwiches.
- senordevnyc 2y agoI live in the 24th precinct and I'm sitting in my office right now a couple blocks away from you, in the midtown south precinct. So I'm genuinely curious: if there's a constant parade of suspects coming into your building, but compstat doesn't reflect it, why the discrepancy? Are the police simply not recording these crimes?
- nla 2y agoDowngrades and straight dismissals. If there is no weapon and you do not have ID on you, you walk. Used to be, no ID, you went down to Central Booking, where you would be ID'd and be very unhappy with the conditions. That ended with COVID. Patrol sup decides charges, Not AO. Insp. gets dinged at Compstat if numbers go up, so, numbers are 'managed' -- at every command. DAT's disappear in 6 months. Most get a DAT. Why do you think everyone who could leave this job, did?
- senordevnyc 2y agoWait, so they haul these people to your precinct, read the charges aloud (as you said before), then let them go because they don’t have ID?
