Assignment:
It is reported that the Baltimore City Police Department is experiencing a terrible morale situation. Some of the department's officers have been seen in disguise on YouTube in which they discuss how morale and motivation of law enforcement is so deficient that law enforcement officers are choosing not to respond to calls for assistance in a timely manner. Crime rates are on the rise due to a lack of motivation by the officers to implement crime prevention initiatives, community policing, or even daily required operations.
