5 Law Enforcment Reforms

Five Public Rights Protections in Cases of Fatal Enforcement

1)      Intensively retraining of officers in the use of deadly force as a method to disable rather than kill suspects.

2)      Recruit and advance officers who are ethnically similar to the community they serve and if possible reside within that community.

3)      An operating personal on-duty recording devises required on each officer sending an uninterrupted live signal, either video or audio, to a central collection service. 

4)      Grand juries in all death related enforcement cases to be held.  Those cases to be held outside the jurisdiction of the officer involved.  In high profile cases involving death should automatically go to a Federal Grand jury. When it is necessary video-conference presentations should be utilized for those hearings.

5)      Findings of grand juries should always be released during working hours on the same day they are concluded.
