Statement Of Ramona Ripston, ACLU/SC Executive Director On The Recommendation of William Bratton For Los Angeles Chief of Police
Wednesday, October 2, 2002
We extend our congratulations to Mayor Hahn and Commissioner William Bratton. Everyone who has worked tirelessly over the years on the issue of police reform knows that the department must change and we hold high hopes that William Bratton is the person to make that change a reality. From excessive force to breaking the code of silence, the new Chief will have his work cut out for him. We look forward to rolling up our sleeves and extending a helping hand in reforming the department and giving the City of Los Angeles the police force it deserves.
