The Oakland Police Department is getting closer to closing a dark chapter for the force with 20 years of federal oversight about to be sharply reduced.
At a Wednesday hearing in Oakland, U.S. District Judge William Orrick said he plans to issue an order outlining the ways the department can prove that it will properly implement court-ordered reforms over the long-term during what he referred to as a one-year “sustainability period.”The federal monitoring stemmed from a scandal involving a group of rogue officers known as “The Riders.”
Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong said the one area that must still must improved was “discipline disparities” within the department. “The changes that have been acknowledged and recognized that the Oakland Police Department has accomplished are significant and we have much more work to do — as does the nation in reforming policing, in being more responsive to our communities, in being having a higher standard of professionalism,” Schaaf said.
