Exclusive | NYPD limits subway overtime hours — despite surging violence –

The NYPD is making changes to the overtime regulations for cops working in the subway following a series of shocking crimes, including the tragic death of a woman who was set on fire on a train. According to sources, the new rules, which went into effect on Jan. 1, have cut the number of subway overtime hours in half for detectives. They are now limited to 40 hours of overtime per month, with a maximum of two transit details.

Previously, officers were allowed to work four to six 7.5-hour underground shifts per month. The decision to reduce overtime hours comes in the aftermath of allegations that a high-ranking cop was granting overtime for sexual favors. Lt. Quathisha Epps, the top earner in the NYPD, filed a complaint alleging misconduct by ex-top cop Jeffrey Maddrey.

The department’s response to the allegations has been swift, with changes being made to the overtime management policies and procedures. However, some within the force feel that the new rules are punishing the wrong people. Despite the controversy, the NYPD is assuring the public that there will be no reduction in the number of police personnel patrolling the subway system. More officers will be deployed on regular shifts to ensure subway safety.

While overall crime in the subway has been down this year, there has been a recent surge in violent crimes. Incidents include a woman being set on fire while sleeping on a train and a stranger being pushed onto the tracks for no apparent reason. Assaults in the system have increased, with a 40% rise in December compared to the same period last year.

In addition to limiting detective overtime, the new rules also restrict the number of overtime hours that administrative police officers can claim to 44 hours per month. The NYPD is committed to reviewing and improving its overtime management practices to maintain honor and integrity within the department.
