The Guardian: New York City’s mayor praised its police department for helping bring crime rates down in 2014, calling it the “world’s greatest police department” during a press conference on Monday, in the wake of controversy that saw hundreds of officers turn their backs to him as he spoke during the funerals of two slain detectives in Brooklyn. Responding to police protests at the latest of those funerals, on Sunday, mayor Bill de Blasio called the actions by some NYPD officers “disrespectful” and police commissioner Bill Bratton said those involved “embarrassed themselves”, during a joint news conference held at police headquarters to review the year-over-year crime statistics.
