Police Shooting Fell Under Kelly
Former NYPD Comm. Kelly: "Can you always use more training? Sure/but you have to identify the problem
CCRB chair’s son is a top Bratton advisor (NYP) The 22-year-old son of Civilian Complaint Review Board Chairman Richard Emery is working as an adviser to Police Commissioner Bill Bratton — a move that has some observers crying nepotism. Jacques Singer-Emery, the godson of NYPD counterterror chief John Miller, graduated from Princeton in 2013 and is now a policy adviser on Crime Analysis Program Planning. Singer-Emery, whose mom is “Footloose” actress Lori Singer, previously interned at the surveillance tech firm Kroll while Bratton worked there in 2011.

Many described being surprised to learn, often on social media, about the opinions — and stereotypes — held by family and friends about people of other races. In some cases, those relationships have fractured, in person and online. Kenny Hargrove, a black man from Brooklyn married to a white woman, said he and his wife confronted one of his in-laws for posting a racially insensitive meme on Facebook around the time Mr. Brown was killed. The relative was so upset that she unfriended them. Now, she is trying to mend fences and has sent a new friend request. But Mr. Hargrove, 36, said he was torn about whether to hit “confirm.” As several demonstrators clustered to begin chanting, Mr. Simmons said, some white union members joined in trying to block them, while also identifying them to the police.
These were the same white union members, Mr. Simmons said, whom he had worked with to advocate for things like raising the minimum wage and protecting collective bargaining rights. * NYPD Chief Bratton onGarner Video: ‘Use of Force Always Looks Awful’ * Mayor Bill de Blasio has struck deals with most of New York City’s union employees this year but now faces a daunting challenge: an escalating fight with police unions that say officers are being underpaid by the city and undermined by the mayor, theJournal writes:

Police Commissioner Bill Bratton slammed his predecessor, Raymond Kelly, for leaving the NYPD with “awful” morale, in part due to his heavy reliance on the controversial stop-and-frisk tactic, report our Simone Weichselbaum and Reuven Blau. “Morale coming into this department was awful,” Bratton said in an interview aired Sunday on Channel 7. “The public didn’t understand that, politicians didn’t understand it, but it was a very dispirited organization. It was an organization, I think, beat down over several years, beaten up by the political establishment.”* Bratton raps Kelly and Bloomberg on stop and frisk(NYP)

Bill Bratton says Ray Kelly's NYPD was demoralized. Really?
Singing the blues (NYDN Ed) After three months atop the NYPD, Commissioner Bill Bratton says that he took over “a very dispirited organization” with “awful” morale after “several years of being beaten up by the political establishment, by the press” in the stop-question-frisk controversy. Can you imagine how bad morale would be had not Ray Kelly built an internationally renowned anti-terror unit, brought the department into the high-tech era, instituted predictive policing, overcome a budget-driven reduction of 6,000 officers, devised anti-gang strategies like Operation Crew Cut, attracted the most diverse work force in NYPD history, driven down the use of force by officers and, most important by far, averted thousands of murders and prevented tens of thousands of New Yorkers from being victimized in other crimes? We hate to think.* INTERESTING SHOT AT BILL BRATTON as lead editorial in Post, which continues to have Ray Kelly’s back – “Spoiled Bratton”: “It’s easy for Bratton to go on television to talk about the shortcomings of his predecessors now that they are out of office. For the city’s sake, we just hope he can match their record of success.”

Can Mayor-elect Bill de Blasio’s new police commissioner, William
Bratton, reduce crime and restore the N.Y.P.D’s relationship with
minorities? The experience of Los Angeles says yes.
Bratton’s LA record is good news for New York(NYP)
The most important thing Bratton did was change the culture of the
LAPD. The police were despised by the residents of Los Angeles’ poor,
minority communities — and, with good reason: The LAPD had become a sort
of paramilitary force, with helicopters, machine guns, even tanks. When
gang violence erupted, it would rush into a community and then quietly
retreat a few days later. Police-community relations deteriorated
further with the Rodney King incident and the ensuing riots. In the
late ’90s, the Rampart scandal erupted, with dozens of officers in the
anti-gang division found to be involved in corruption and abuse.
The
Justice Department placed the LAPD under federal oversight, alleging a
“pattern-and-practice of police misconduct.” Bratton won their trust by
spending his first few months meeting with community leaders and
listening to their concerns. He walked the most crime-ridden blocks and
talked to the residents to learn what they thought the LAPD could do to
improve life in their neighborhoods. He held monthly town-hall
meetings. He brought local leaders in to observe CompStat meetings to
improve transparency.Bratton’s community-oriented style of policing
generated impressive results in Los Angeles. Not only did violent crime
drop by 54 percent but the reputation of the police improved
dramatically. * Bill Thompson Thinks Bill Bratton Will Be Much Better This Time Around (NYO)

NYPD Officer Sent To Psych Ward By Superiors After Reporting Corruption
NYPD Officer Sent To Psych Ward By Superiors After Reporting Corruption (Gawker) Graham Rayman at the Village Voice brings us more on officer Adrian Schoolcraft, the modern day Serpico who was sent to a psych ward for reporting on corruption in the NYPD. While working out of the 81st precinct in Brooklyn, Schoolcraft became aware of a pattern of crime victims getting caught up in bureaucratic hurdles that seemed to have purposely been set up to make it hard to report serious crimes. Schoolcraft reported a number of these incidents to investigators. That's where things take a turn for the insane.
The NYPD Tapes Confirmed (Village Voice) For more than two years, Adrian Schoolcraft
secretly recorded every roll call at the 81st Precinct in Brooklyn and
captured his superiors urging police officers to do two things in
order to manipulate the "stats" that the department is under pressure
to produce: Officers were told to arrest people who were doing little
more than standing on the street, but they were also encouraged to
disregard actual victims of serious crimes who wanted to file reports.
