"I have learned that despite the efforts that our officers make every minute of every day and the risks they take to keep you safe, there are still some of you who are willing to discount that for your own political gain"Goodwin, Mike.

"[Anton Konev] later called for an apology and said Krokoff should be willing to admit his department botched the confrontation with protesters or seek a new job.
"'If he's not willing to do that, then I have lost my confidence in him completely,' Konev said, 'and he should resign.'"

Chief Krokoff is quite the hypocrite to blast the (admittedly rotten) Common Council for supposedly not appreciating his police officers' sacrifices (even the "sacrifices" of the drunk-driving Albany ones?) when Krokoff himself does not appreciate the sacrifices of Albany officers of years gone by who had died in the line of duty. Granted: Krokoff's an inept and dirty cop, and why would a temperamental, inept, dirty cop like he care about anyone other than himself?
If only they'd all resign, the whole lot of them: Albany Yellow Journal staff, council members, police, etc.
