Description

The Panel was established as an advisory body to the San Francisco District Attorney in May 2015 in the wake of revelations that 14 San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) officers had exchanged numerous racist and homophobic messages. The Panel was tasked with answering the critical question: Was the racial and homophobic bias demonstrated by the offensive texts a reflection of institutionalized bias within the SFPD and, if so, to what extent? The report found evidence of racial disparities in the rate of police stops and searches of African Americans, and in the rate of officer-involved shootings. Contents: Stops, Searches, and Arrests; Personnel; Use of Force and Officer-Involved Shootings; Internal Discipline; External Oversight; äóìBradyäó Policies and Practices; Culture; Crime Data; Findings and Recommendations. This is a print on demand report.
