WE’RE GETTING A LOOK AT THE SIXTH REPORT FROM DOCTOR JAMES GINGER WHO IS MONITORING REFORMS AT APD. THE REPORT, 439 PAGES LONG, WAS RELEASED WEDNESDAY. INDICATES THAT THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS MAKING PROGRESS IN SOME AREAS SUCH AS DEVELOPING POLICIES. APD IS SAID TO BE AT 97 PERCENT COMPLIANCE FOR THAT AREA.
THE REPORT SHOWS APD IS AT 71 PERCENT WHEN IT COMES TO TRAINING OFFICERS TO THE NEW POLICIES. HOWEVER, THE REPORT SAYS “APD HAS APPROACHED TRAINING REMEDIATION IN A DISCONNECTED, HAPHAZARD AND NON-STRATEGIC MANNER.”
GINGER SAYS COMPLIANCE ON THE OPERATIONAL ASPECTS OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT IS AT 53 PERCENT.
