Police accountability suffered when the L.A. City Council adopted a deceptive 2019 discipline 'reform.' It's time to undo the broken discipline process.
and Mayor Karen Bass want to make it easier to fire or otherwise punish officers who have committed serious misconduct, and they have the right idea. Police must earn the trust of the communities they serve, yet trusting them is hard if officers can’t be held accountable for improper shootings, lying in official reports, being drunk on duty or other egregious actions.
But there’s a deep file of studies, audits and reports that demonstrate the opposite in the case of the Board of Rights, in part because of who those civilians are. They’re not a jury, chosen at random from among the public. They are pulled from a pool of applicants recruited and selected by Police Commission staff and are often experts in employment law or mediation.
L.A. needs the proper balance between a civil service system that would make it practically impossible to remove a bad officer and a patronage system, like the one L.A. had before the Board of Rights and other reforms were adopted in the 1930s. Endorsement: Measure C pretends to be about police reform. Instead, it’s a noxious sleight of hand. Vote no
