Anti-Cop Consequences: Almost 2,000 NYPD Officers to Quit Before Getting Full Pensions 

The exodus of New York Police Department (NYPD) officers keeps growing. More than 2,465 police officers have quit this year, 42% more than in the same period last year, according to pension fund statistics obtained by The New York Post.

Many of the NYPD officers that are filing to leave the department are doing so before reaching 20 years and getting their full pension.

Officers usually work 20 years or more to collect their full pension, which can match their final three years of average salary. However, the number of cops quitting early skyrocketed to 71% compared to last year’s figures.
