Deputy of Operations
Cedric Daniels’s BPD rank/title is misstated here. In The Wire sources and cast credits, he is identified as the Deputy Commissioner for/ of Operations, not simply “Deputy of Operations.”
Full reasoning
This line appears to drop the word Commissioner from Daniels's police title.
Multiple sources for The Wire identify Daniels's later-series rank as Deputy Commissioner for Operations (or Deputy Commissioner of Operations), which is the full position title used for that command role. For example:
- TV Guide’s cast page lists Lance Reddick as “Deputy Commissioner for Operations Cedric Daniels.”
- Wikipedia’s Police of The Wire entry describes the command position as “Deputy Commissioner of Operations” and says “Daniels is the Deputy Commissioner of Operations.”
So the problem is not a minor wording preference like of vs for; it is that the posted text omits Commissioner entirely and therefore gives the wrong title.
