You go ahead and worry about one individual charging overtime; I worry more about the fact that NYC had approx. 2,200 homicides *annually* in the 1990 - 1992 period - immediately preceding the time Guiliani came up and cleaned up with a strong police force. Demonstrably saved thousands of lives. And considering that 96% of shooting victims in NYC are black or Latino - Guiliani and Bloomberg saved thousands of Black and Latino lives with their strong police forces.

And yet both communities were fiercely critical of them both, including the current mayor. You need to believe black and brown communities when they’re saying stuff like that.
