NYPD Deletes Photo of Seized Diapers and Formula After Getting Roasted By Twitter

1.

Here is the now-deleted post shared by NYPD News on Twitter which depicted officers standing around a table of stolen and seized goods. Usually, these photos show officers standing around bags of drugs, or pipes, boasting of their catch, but this picture, showing officers standing next to a table of diapers, formula, and bandaids, didn't sit right with most people.

Here is another post referencing the same "bust", but without the image. And while we aren't here to defend stealing, it's a pretty bad look from the NYPD.

And many, many people pointed this out. One Twitter user was quick to point out that one of the officers in the picture has been subject to over 35 allegations of misconduct, which cost the department more than 300k dollars in damages. But here he is, standing next to a table of diapers. Do you know how many diapers you can buy with that much money? It's a lot.

A close-up of the haul shows us what exactly these criminals were selling. Diapers, soaps, and other daily essentials.

Again, this isn't about crime or theft, and people aren't made because the NYPD "busted" some ring of thieves, but it just shows how out of touch the NYPD is with reality. Because I don't know about you, but people stealing diapers are not running some underground diaper ring, most likely they are using those diapers, for you know, their children.

And the only reason we know the NYPD also agrees with us is that they deleted the post. because it's pretty hard to look tough when you're standing next to a table of diapers and formula.
