Description

INTRODUCTION Much police misconduct is not accidental, incidental, or inevitable. Instead, it is systemic, arising out of departmental deficiencies that undermine officer adherence to legal rules. When a police department resists public feedback, provides inadequate training and policy guidance to officers, or disciplines laxly those who violate legal rules, it facilitates--even encourages--law breaking. Countering the systemic causes of police misconduct requires doing more than punishing individual officers. It requires structurally changing police departments that permit misconduct in order to create accountability for officers and supervisors and foster norms of professional integrity. (1)
