“I hate how accurate it is. Baltimore gets a lot of bad publicity and maybe that is part of why the police are the way they are. They are pushed to do a near impossible job. Most of the city has a lot of crime & cooperating with police is its own death sentence. Police are pushed to accomplish near impossible tasks between volume and lack of experienced & honest officers. Being a Balto police officer is horrible and violent and if you are good…you may not survive if you stay beyond your rookie years. This contributes to the corruption. The most senior members are only a few years out of the academy and they stay because of what they can get away with. The people training and leading are corrupt.
This doesn’t excuse what they do. It is just an explanation of why, no matter how much money is thrown at the department. No matter how many times new upper brass is hired and fired, it won’t change.”
