Dressed in only a thong and revealing bra, she’s seen working the pole like a pro, leaving people both shocked and impressed. Now, the streets and social media are buzzing, wondering if Mercado’s side hustle is gonna cost her that NYPD badge. “I’m at a loss for words,” one fellow detective reportedly said, echoing the sentiment of many. Some folks feel like what she does off the clock ain’t nobody’s business, while others think it’s a bad look for a cop—especially one handling sensitive cases in the SVU.
With the video making the rounds, the big question is: Will the NYPD take action, or will they let Detective Mercado keep doing her thing? So far, the department hasn’t made a statement, but the controversy is only getting bigger. Whether she’s keeping her job or not, one thing’s for sure—Melissa Mercado just went from NYPD to viral sensation overnight.
