Somerville, MA City to implement a police commission and community police review agency

The Somerville City Council voted to implement a police commission and community police review agency. Barbara Attard was quoted as  former President of the National Association for Civilian Oversight of Law Enforcement stating, “as oversight of law enforcement becomes an integral part of government in the United States, the benefits of oversight are being acknowledged. Those in policing are recognizing that allowing independent oversight and community access to this information leads to increased confidence in the process and the law enforcement.”
