there are 35,000 nypd cops. believe me this kid never dealt with a chief in his career.

but my guess is that his girlfriend dropped a dime on this guy to internal affairs. even if her story was total BS, the job will take your gun and shield away pending an "investigation" that could take years. all the while, you're stuck in central booking processing perps and being miserable.

Roger that....I had 300 guys on my department....equivalent of NYC District Chief or something like that?

I spent the last five years of my 20 jammed into booking. I had opinions on things. I liked most of the guys in the cells better than my chain-up. And they actually did me a huge favor . I made lemonade out of the situation...and got out while I'm still young. Incentive.
