New Justice Department policy says agents must intervene if they see abuse
Summary by Ground News
The Justice Department has ordered federal agents to step in to “prevent or stop” excessive force by other members of law enforcement. The new policy is outlined in a memo issued Friday by Attorney General Merrick Garland. The change comes nearly two years after the 2020 death of George Floyd, a Minneapolis man who died under the knee of a local police officer. The policy, which is slated to take effect July 19, does not compel state and local police to follow a similar standard.1 month ago·Washington, United States
