Union officials of Nassau County believe that bulk may not be better when it comes to Law Enforcement.
While Nassau County's 8 Police
Precincts merge into 4, plans to collect more officers into potentially
dangerous neighborhoods are going into effect as well. PBA (Police Benevolent
Association) President, James Carver announced that the majority of the North
Shore of Long Island will be without police protection. Officers of the 3rd and
6th Precinct will merge in the South to monitor places such as Valley Stream,
and the Green Acres Mall (Patch.com).Carver explained that the merger and plan of attack is called the 'Vacuum Effect.' He's afraid that with every critical second, time will be wasted transporting prisoners to and from, leaving posts unattended and unprotected (Patch.com).
According to County Executive Ed Mangano, even though officers will be placed out of certain areas, response calls will be treated as they were before (Patch.com). Additionally, a new online processor will obviate the issue of transport before the First and Fourth Alignment.
