NEW YORK: Places Hold On Officer Retirements — Retirements Up 400%

NYPD Places Limits on Retirements After ‘Troubling’ 400 Percent Surge

One officer told the Post that they have had so many applications that the pension office has had to limit the number of appointments to around 40 a day.

Apparently, the pension section is only taking a certain amount of people per day and I think they are backed up till late July, early August,” one officer said. “That’s why you don’t see like 100 a day, because they are only doing like 35 to 40 a day, by appointment.”

In a prepared statement, the head of the Police Benevolent Association blamed lawmakers for having “completely dismantled our justice system” and called the rash of retirement applications “one answer to the question on every police officer’s mind: How are we supposed to do our job in this environment?”

And now that crime is out of control, they want to blame us for that, too,” PBA president Pat Lynch said.
