Hundreds of NYC correction officers are jumping ship to the NYPD
Fox News
City correction officers are so desperate to escape their jobs in the Big Apple’s jails that hundreds have recently joined the NYPD — even amid violent anti-cop protests and the progressive “defund the police” movement, The Post has learned.
One of them was Tyliek Dyches, 28, who joined the Department of Correction in June 2017 and worked on Rikers Island. Dyches said he learned that he’d been accepted by the NYPD on June 28 while vacationing in Miami, and he immediately headed to Rikers to empty out his locker when his flight home landed July 5. "My last day I worked before I went on vacation, I went into a triple [shift]. And I’m like, ‘Are you kidding me? My last day before vacation?'" he told The Post.
