Mayflowеr Statе Pοlicе

The Mayflower State Police was officially organized in May of 1838 with the introduction of the State Police Act, which organized the Mayflower State Police as the state-level law enforcement agency for the State of Mayflower. The Mayflower State Police from its inception had a strict culture internally, with a heavy emphasis on rough-working conditions, living inside barracks, and absolute uniformity, earning notoriety as one of the toughest law enforcement agencies at the state-level in all of the Union of Columbia. In 1916, the Mayflower State Police had been the focus of a federal inquiry regarding its actions in repressing a coal miner strike on the outskirts of the Township of West Point in the County of New Haven, where numerous strikers and so-called "scabs" were fired upon by mounted troopers. Today, the Mayflower State Police acts as the state-level civilian law enforcement agency of the State of Mayflower.
