Metcalfe panel urges independent agency for police misconduct study
A blue ribbon Metcalfe panel proposes an independent investigative agency with fact finding powers to probe police misconduct while penalties stay with the Police Board and Superintendent. It also recommends expanding the Board from five to fifteen, adding members from black and brown community groups, and granting it authority to appoint the police chief and approve department policies. Residents from Hyde Park Kenwood and leaders from Woodlawn collaborated on the panel’s composition.
