"From almost the very beginning the police refused to assigned sufficient manpower, or take the case seriously. When Carmichael called to report her daughter missing after the initial 24 hour waiting period she was told, "Lady, why are you calling here? Your daughter is 21. These officers should not have taken the report in the first place." The next day, April 26, the complaint was marked "closed." Her family repeatedly begged officers to investigate Ramona's case. It took a plea from a local politician that was contacted by the family for a case to even be "re-opened"."

There is never anything good posted about the NYPD. I have never to to deal with them in any way but they make me sick to my stomach every time I hear about them.

The police treat us like criminals. I'm not saying that all polise are bad, but there's a definate need for investigations to root out dirty cops.

Maybe there is no manpower because they are focusing on silly things like "Operation Luckybag" or simply writing tickets or arresting pot smokers.
