Law enforcement departments struggle with hiring, retention - South Florida Sun-Sentinel - South Florida Sun Sentinel

Brandon Diaz was driving around the north side of Chicago when a blank billboard caught his attention. The summer-like, autumn weather would soon give way to gray skies and bone-chilling temperatures, and Diaz, the head of the Fort Lauderdale police union. came up with a plan to capitalize on that. The end goal was to lure cold, COVID-restricted Chicago police officers to sunny, freedom-touting South Florida.

On Dec. 3, the appeal to police officers in the Windy City rose above the highway: “Wish you were here! WE’RE HIRING. FLPDjobs.com.” The message is blanketed with a background of palm trees and the ocean, and a Fort Lauderdale police cruiser perches prominently along the beach in the foreground.
