Tempers flared at a recent meeting of the Cleveland Community Police Commission, and now two community groups are calling for one of the commission's members to resign or be removed.
The Cleveland Community Police Commission was established after voters approved Issue 24 in 2021. The commission's first meeting was this past January. It has the authority to investigate and hand down decisions related to allegations of police misconduct. It also has oversight powers related to police recruitment and training.
The last part of the commissioner's remarks didn't sit well with Brenda Bickerstaff, who helped write Issue 24, which voters approved, creating the commission. Her brother was killed by police in 2002. "During the meeting, Ms. Alana Garrett-Ferguson made statements on public record in which she insulted the families impacted by police violence, the community, and activists who worked diligently to ensure the commission devised under the Consent Decree would become a permanent and integral part of police accountability," the letter states.
She added that she's been targeted for months by some of the very people calling for her to step down.
