In WBUR's latest investigation with propublica, we learned just how common internal hiring mandates are when selecting police chiefs, and why they can prove problematic — especially in departments with cultures tainted by scandals.
In that era, Revere typically chose the internal candidate for chief of police who scored highest on the state civil service exam. That changed, when then-Mayor Thomas Ambrosino wanted the freedom to hire someone regardless of exam results, and to have more control over the terms and length of the appointment.
Ambrosino recalled that the council wanted to please the police unions by making sure that the chief continued to be hired from inside. Ambrosino said he considered it the cost of getting the deal done. But he now says the ordinance hamstrings the mayor’s ability to choose the best candidate for the job.
Two consultants to the city would later express similar concerns. In 2015, the year that Arrigo was elected mayor, the Collins Center consulting group said in athat the department’s culture was “very militaristic” and the “lack of unity between the command staff members is most alarming.
During a heated 2017 meeting with the council, Arrigo said that both the Collins report and the candidates’ scores on the Ryan group’s assessment showed why the city needed to look outside the department for the next police chief. “We owe it to ourselves, we owe it to our city, to have an expanded pool of candidates,” he said.Ryan Strategies Group also performed an organizational review of the department at Arrigo’s request. It revealed concerns about morale.
