Three Ex-Police Officers Stand Trial in Tyre Nichols Murder Case

I get paid over $40 per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Heres what I've been doing..

For those fellow citizens who need and strongly desire to stop Police Brutality, we as voters in a Democracy need to make it a duty to first, hold local executives accountable –  governors and mayors. Next, we need commitment that the executives hold Police Commissioners,  Commanders, and Chiefs accountable. Then, we need to see that police investigators were given more responsibility and made more accountable.  Part of the selection process for the executive and command positions would be the study of strategies to abate and eliminate brutality. We must get our governors, mayors, city council persons, etc. to avoid certain practices and stratgies, and get these Civil Service Executives to diligently implement evidence-based reforms: by using data-driven, research-backed policies and tactics that have shown promise in reducing police brutality. Further, in larger communities we must have strong civilian oversight agencies that

- Receive and investigate complaints against officers
- Review internal police investigations
- Recommend corrective action
- Identify systemic issues and recommending policy changes  
- Conducting audits of police practices
- Mediate disputes between police and community members
- Promote transparency through public reporting

In the end, stopping police brutality is an ongoing process integral to every state and city police department and precinct. 

Let's briefly examine some failing and successful strategies

Failing Strategies

 1. Lack of accountability: Many police departments have failed to hold officers accountable for misconduct and excessive use of force[1][3]. This has allowed problematic behavior to continue unchecked.

 2. Insufficient training: Inadequate training, especially in de-escalation techniques and implicit bias, has contributed to officers relying too heavily on force[4].

 3. Militarization of police: Providing police with military-grade weapons and equipment has led to an "us vs. them" mentality and increased use of force against civilians[2].

 4. Lack of transparency: Many departments have resisted efforts to increase transparency around use of force incidents and officer misconduct[3].

 5. Overreliance on punitive measures: Focusing solely on punishing individual "bad apples" without addressing systemic issues has proven ineffective[1].

Successful Strategies

 1. Evidence-based reforms: Implementing data-driven, research-backed policy changes has shown promise in reducing police violence[4]. For example:

    - A "hands off" policy for officers involved in foot chases in Las Vegas led to a 23% drop in use of force[4].
   - Officers trained in "procedural justice" in Seattle used force up to 40% less[4].

 2. Limiting police discretion: Reducing opportunities for biased decision-making, such as removing police from minor traffic enforcement, has decreased racial disparities in policing[4].

 3. Peer intervention programs: Training officers to intervene when they see colleagues using excessive force has helped prevent escalation of violence[4].

 4. Improved data collection and analysis: Systematically tracking use of force incidents and complaints has allowed departments to identify and address problematic patterns[1][4].

 5. Community-oriented policing: Fostering stronger relationships between police and the communities they serve has improved trust and reduced confrontations[1][2].

 6. Demilitarization efforts: Scaling back the use of military equipment and tactics in everyday policing has helped reduce aggressive encounters[2].

 7. Enhanced accountability measures: Implementing civilian review boards with real power and improving internal affairs processes have increased officer accountability[1][3].

 8. Crisis intervention teams: Partnering mental health professionals with police to respond to mental health crises has reduced violent encounters[2].

 9. Implicit bias and de-escalation training: While more research is needed, some departments have seen improvements after implementing these training programs[4].

10. Policy changes: Banning dangerous practices like chokeholds and no-knock warrants has reduced fatalities in some jurisdictions[2].

To be most effective, experts recommend implementing multiple interlocking reforms simultaneously that work to reduce reliance on police where unnecessary, rectify systemic issues within departments, and repair harms caused to communities[3]. Ongoing evaluation and adjustment of reform efforts is also crucial to ensure their continued effectiveness.

Anyone, police or politician, that takes an oath to protect should be given the maximum sentence allowed for any crime commited while in office.

Did I read this correctly?  

These police officers are charged with Civil Rights Violations but NOT actually charged with MURDER?

Tyreeks arrest video clearly shows police brutality and overreach

if there is a traffic violation give a ticket and move on

you cannot force anyone out of their car let alone yank them out throw them on the ground and handcuff them 

all of the cops involved should be fired and charged with unlawful assault

Murder is murder whether it is a policeman or a common citizen who commits the act. It's time to bring some equity into this situation.

Abolish police immunity!

We need federal standards for policing! Federal standards for training, Federal standards for mental health care of the officers! 
Better health care for officers injured on the job! 

You don't really need to ask me this question. Researching my final paper for my undergrad criminology class I found that there have been dozens of books written about this subject by police themselves from all around the world. 

Do you want the short answer? HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE!

It past due to fix policing 

REMOVE QUALIFIED IMMUNITY FROM THE POLICE!  

Hold police to account for their actions just like everyone else!

Qualified immunity must be abolished!  Police officers must not be allowed to be judge, jury and executioner!

Police brutality is a horrible problem! There are many cases of horrible abuse! Police recruits should be screened at a lot higher level. Power hungry, brutal people, do not belong in positions of power. 

No exceptions prosecutions! 

Charge those who do and get the police unions behind not protecting abusive acts.

As with most actions where a change in culture is desired, it starts with leadership!  It is not going to be easy to turn this ship to a new direction but with strong, dedicated and consistent leadership, the ship will be turned.  Leadership has to lay out proper behavior for the officers on the street.  Failure to adhere to the established policies must result in swift corrective actions.  All officers must be trained on the new policies.  And there should be tracking mechanisms to measure progress!  If leadership does not want to lead, then replace them.

In a lot of these cases a crime was brought to the attention of the Police.  What was done in these cases was wrong, however before you begin to look at the cops look at the individual first and find out why they became a suspect.  If you did nothing wrong 99% of the time you won't come into contact with the Police.  

Police accountability, judicial accountability, all accountability is the only way to reel in out of control authoritarian behaviors.

We need to eradicate immunity for police!

I'm tired of the terror police impose on communities of color. 

Police departments need better screening. As does congress. They also need accountability. As does congress. 

This response is not perfect, but a FAST action should be required whenever a citizen does at the hands of the police.  This action is what should have been the MINIMUM required of our police command and poolitical leaders for the last 100 years!  This is better than what we have seen in DOZENS of other cases in the last two decades.  Now we need to decide how to continue to improve.
