Salon: Police Accountability in Chicago
7:00 pm — 8:00 pm
Zoom
Adam Gross, Justice Reform Director of www.BPIchicago.org, will update us on the Legal Oversight and Accountability Working Group of the Chicago Police Accountability Task Force, which in April 2016 released a hard-hitting report, detailing a host of recommendations to reform a badly broken system. As a result, the Chicago City Council approved an ordinance creating two new stronger and better funded entities to investigate police misconduct: a Civilian Office of Police Accountability, and a Deputy Inspector General for Public Safety.
