Chicago Council of Lawyers Releases Statement on Police Accountability Report
In April 2016, the Police Accountability Task Force issued their 190-page report: Recommendations for Reform: Restoring Trust between the Chicago Police and the Communities They Serve. The Report addresses many subjects, ranging from how to improve police-community relations to how to respond to persons with mental health problems.
Our partner in the Collaboration for Justice, the Chicago Council of Lawyers has released its review of the report, focusing on the need for legal oversight and accountability of the Chicago Police Department, issues we have long taken an interest in. Their statement on the report is available now on the Council website.
