I just think that the past four

Chuck Wexler, executive director of PERF, warns that many police departments are still struggling to recruit and retain officers.

the nation have been forced to disband, leaving those
municipalities reliant upon state or county police forces.
NBC reports that in addition to increased pay and
benefits, many police departments have chosen to
change application requirements to increase hiring
