The City of Portland, Oregon (currently in a Federal plea deal to reform unconstitutional policing) is perhaps unique in the nation, for having repeatedly bargained to allow police a 48-hour ‘waiting period’ … prior to requiring officer report following use of deadly force. This time has been used historically to concoct false police narratives. After sustained public pressure that rose to mass arrest of justice advocates, and at a cost to the City of nearly $10,000,000 in bounties and pay raises, the police union in 2016 allowed the language to be excised from their contract.

My counter-proposal follows July 2017 disclosure, that the Multnomah County DA will treat these officers’ reports as ‘compelled’ … requiring his office to grant immunity from prosecution.

The submission relays testimony from policing consultants and DoJ investigators. Given US Attorney General Sessions’ stated reluctance to enforce plea deals negotiated in prior administration, I hope that you too – in your own community – will discern local law enforcement self-exoneration schemes … and help dismantle them. I believe it is ultimately The People’s responsibility to ensure that the U.S. Constitution is in force.
