A police officer in Seattle who served on the force for more than 23 years resigned last week after submitting a scathing letter calling out the leadership of the city and force.
"Their absurd policies have turned Seattle into a playground for anarchists and criminals, and they seem utterly unconcerned with the devastating consequences of their actions," wrote Jessica Taylor, who joined the force in 1998 and resigned last week. "If you haven't noticed, the criminals are running this city."
Taylor refused to fill out a standard exit form and instead submitted the 15-page letter to chief of police Adrian Diaz, who she says "has brought this department and this city to its knees," adding that the department "has transformed into a cesspool of corruption."

How sad. It is questionable if they will ever be able to establish law and other again with all the bureaucratic BS that has been institutionalized. Obviously their voters are happy with how their life is. I have no problem with it as long as they stay away from where I live.

Even if they want to go back to a different level it will be hard to do. The police will not have the power ever again to create change even if tough love going back to standards. The people have been allowed a certain level of chaos they will not give back.

MAJ Byron Oyler - Until the majority of people get tired of all the stealing, rape, murder, burning, and such; they will have what they voted for. While a police departments can be destroyed in a year, it will take 10 years of better to repair the damage done to the departments.

You can not have criminals and insane people control cities. This seems like common sense but nothing these days is as rare as common sense.

This will change when voters have had enough of this and elect politicians who care about their constituents.

Seattle is getting pretty far behind this that different politics may not save them. Ten to twenty years ago they could have installed a powerful police to force change but not in 2023. Tough love today just is not possible like it once was.
