      One point I made clear for @NYPDChiefPatrol is that until the department holds its bad apples fully accountable, trust will be hard to build

          Your point about trust is well taken. What police don't often recognize is that their officers are not safe if the badge isn't trusted.

          How would you like to be a police officer walking into a volatile situation - if the citizens involved didn't trust your badge????

          Rebuilding that trust is precisely why Civilian Led Policing needs to be part of the solution. @CivilianLedPD adds citizens to the equation.

          Truth. The chief in Columbus Ohio spent hours trying to build trust by meeting with community but then excused a cop stomping on a suspect.

          Proverbs about bad apples are to do with how rot spreads. Where there have been a few bad apples, there is now a spoiled barrel.

          Changing a department with that much dysfunction will require honesty, openness, and sacrifice. Anything less is just window dressing.

          You were too nice to them. You should have demanded their resignation. That is what I would have done.

          That's what policing used to be about, community building. The NYPD runs like a corporation & criminality is the equivalent of IPO valuation
