"A directive issued to some Baltimore police officers appears to order them to meet quotas by making at least two arrests per week - something critics call an example of how city police are pushing too hard to improve their crime statistics."
"The two-arrests-per-week standard was laid out in a memorandum last month to Southwestern District officers who work the midnight-to-8 a.m. shift. It also establishes weekly minimum enforcement numbers for several other types of police action, including car stops, stop and frisks, curfew violations and parking tickets."
" 'You have made your supervisors look very good to the command staff both in the [Southwest District] and downtown,' states the memo obtained by The Sun. 'However, we still have a few of you who do not wish to perform like the rest of us, thus, this memo.' "

Got it officers? Your job is not to protect and serve. Your job is to make the idiot bureaucrats look good. |
