The Atlantic City, New Jersey Police Department does it, again — they have been handing the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office slam dunk cases that no one could lose.

Let’s give proper credit — where credit is due.

Marty Small has likely been the most supportive Mayor for the Atlantic City Police Department in history.

The effective, demonstrated leadership by Small has been instrumental in restoring more than 50 officers to the ranks of the Atlantic City Police Department.

The ranks of the Atlantic City Police Department had plummeted below 250 officers. To put this in perspective, the Atlantic City Police Department had more than 400 police officers prior to the advent of casino gaming.

The cuts made by former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie were a disgraceful and dangerous.

Small has also made regular, strategic promotions that have been great for departmental morale — as officers can see that upward mobility is readily available within the Atlantic City Police Department.
