Kafkaesque - Police fire "“...the only supervisor who resists making requested changes as directed by management in order to reflect the correct finding."

Must be nice to know what the 'correct finding' is without having your investigator weigh in.

Chicago’s police review agency fires investigator for not exonerating cops - The Washington Post: "Scott M. Ando, chief administrator of the city’s Independent Police Review Authority, informed its staff in a July 9 email that the agency no longer employed supervising investigator Lorenzo Davis, 65, a former Chicago police commander. IPRA investigates police-brutality complaints and recommends any punishment. Davis’s termination came less than two weeks after top IPRA officials, evaluating Davis’s job performance, accused him of “a clear bias against the police” and called him “the only supervisor at IPRA who resists making requested changes as directed by management in order to reflect the correct finding with respect to OIS,” as officer-involved shootings are known in the agency...

Since its 2007 creation, IPRA has investigated nearly 400 civilian shootings by police and found one to be unjustified. Oddly enough, Davis was getting stellar reviews up until he found a few cases in which he believed police had inappropriately fired their weapons. Through most of his IPRA tenure, Davis’s performance evaluations showered him with praise. They called him an “effective leader” and “excellent team player.” The final evaluation, issued June 26, said he “is clearly not a team player.”"

And of course this is the city where police were found to have tortured suspects for decades. Conveniently, the city managed to cover up the mess long enough for the statute of limitations to prevent all but one of the officers from facing any criminal charges. In 2008, the city’s most elite police unit was disbanded after officers were accused of a host of crimes from assault to theft to burglaries to conspiracy to commit murder. And just earlier this year, the Guardian reported new allegations of torture, beatings, and other physical abuse at an abandoned warehouse. Just a thought: Maybe the Chicago PD needs fewer “team players.”"
