The Seattle Police Department is on pace to lose nearly 200 officers by the end of the year in a historic mass exodus, the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH has learned. The vast majority of those who left the department are patrol officers.
By the end of November, the official number of separations was 164. Since then, more officers have offered their resignations to take jobs at neighboring agencies. Put bluntly, the city does not have enough officers to keep the area safe.
