        "New" policy? Shouldn't that have always been "the" policy?

        The fact this is a "new policy ", is really rather sad. This should've been standard practice all along.

        The sad part is that such a common sense measure apparently isn't so much for the LAPD.

        article ends with rhetorical (?) question: What's the downside? Well, readers might want to know too, but article doesn't help with that.
