  1. I hope Tony R is right. A buddy I used to work with at a smaller department left us to go to one of the largest central FL PDs, ended up in the recruiting office. He said they would not hire anyone who worked even one day with NYPD because of bad experiences with “NY Attitudes” and corruption.
