Seattle Cops Leaving For Neighboring Agency, Mayor Calls Them 'Mall Cops'
“It backfired… it absolutely did,” another officer told KTTH. “She called Port of Seattle cops ‘mall cops’ that don’t really do real police work. She was trying to make it sound like the only place you can make a difference is in Seattle. You can’t make a difference anywhere else. She (said that she) ran into a Port of Seattle officer and she knew they left SPD… and referred to them as a joke.”
Her comments fell flat in a room of officers who were considering their own futures with the Seattle PD.
