The recent resolution of a class-action lawsuit in New York City has ignited a fierce debate, challenging the core tenets of justice and social order. The settlement, which involves the city agreeing to distribute $13.7 million to individuals who partook in the 2020 George Floyd unrest, has been met with significant backlash. This is largely due to the perception that the decision is disproportionately lenient towards the involved rioters, many of whom were not legally held accountable for their actions. Under the settlement, the 1,380 plaintiffs, who allege that their rights were violated by the New York Police Department (NYPD),...

Former NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell stepped down amid a steady stream of New York’s Finest beating her to the exits, according to troubling new data obtained by The Post.

The concerning “voluntary quits” — combined with NYPD recruiting problems leaves the 34,000 uniformed officers “at least 1,200 short,” the police union said. “Cops are being squeezed from every direction. They are working inhumane amounts of forced overtime. The...

Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thinks Mayor Eric Adams gave away the store this month when he greenlit raises for cops under City Hall’s recent agreement with the Big Apple’s largest police union – after the thin blue line went seven years without a raise. “We are in New York City, and you’re talking about funding violence prevention outside of the police and yet Eric Adams has just increased police wages by 28%.
