LAPD Cuts Sexual Assault and Homicide Divisions in Response to “Defund the Police”
The Sexual Assault Special Section and Robbery Homicide Division will be disbanded under the LAPD in Los Angeles, according to a memo that went out to the LAPD department personnel about the “unexpected Department budgetary crisis and shortfall.”
Dominic Choi, deputy chief of staff to Chief Moore, sent the memo. It said that the Chief of Police is “making significant and difficult changes to adapt to the current financial and personnel shortages.”
Additional Specialized Details will also be disbanded.
The Safer Cities Initiative, which primarily deals with homeless encampments in LA’s “Skid Row” area and the Homeless Outreach and Proactive Engagement unit, will also be cut.
The Burglary Special Section and Cargo Auto Theft Detail Commercial Crimes Division will also be cut.
The Animal Cruelty Task Force, Detective Support, and Vice Division will no longer be funded by the LAPD.
Pacific Area Beach Detail, Parks Tasks Forces, Robbery Homicide, Commercial Crimes, Metropolitan Division, Traffic Group, and Labor Relations Unit will all be downsized.

November 21, 2020 at 12:05 pmDefunding the Police is leftwing communist insanity. Ofcourse the elite in Hollywood wont have to worry as they have private security. I only wish that the thugs and criminals figure out how to get to them. Afterall they have all the money. Let the rest of us alone.
Oh and I bet after Defunding the Police California wants to abolish our second amendment rights and take away our guns. Since only the criminals need them. Good Luck with that Newsom.

November 22, 2020 at 10:46 pmIts sad to see the collapse of a law and order society fall into the hands of a gang of corrupt people, thanks to those panhandlers and incompetents that voted for them. Those who fell for the mermaids song will pay dearly, they won’t be able to complain when they will be choked by those same people they voted for. I feel sorry for the rest that voted responsibly, which will suffer the attrocities of the barbaric government.
