Within the Boston Police Department, complaints against officers are rarely confirmed or result in punishment - The Boston Globe

Police data provide a sweeping look at the hundreds of allegations lodged each year against officers — and show how rarely the more than 2,000 members of the department are disciplined.

Police are not able to police themselves. The Boston Globe found "The Boston Police Department almost never believes citizens who report misconduct or violence by police officers, and even when officers are found to have acted inappropriately, they often are not punished with anything harsher than an oral reprimand, according to a Globe analysis of more than four years of department discipline data." Sadly, an expert says this is "very typical of similarly sized departments."

Police Misconduct Records Are Secret. Protests May Finally Change That.

A decades-old New York State law that has kept police behavior from public scrutiny may finally be overturned.

The grief, rage, and community organizing regarding the recent murders of more Black people by police officers is creating the possibility of change across the county. As more and more people are convinced that police departments should be defunded, there is also a push for reforms that increase public safety and police accountability without allocating more power to police. One such reform is that police misconduct records must be made public. We recommend this article about the fight to overturn a New York law that shields police officers from scrutiny by keeping their complaint histories secret.

Police secrecy is a problem in Massachusetts as well. Here, although we can typically learn if an officer has a history of complaints such as brutality or false arrest, there is no law that requires a police department to reveal what discipline, if any, the officer received. The reasons for imposing discipline are also kept secret. Without knowing the discipline, the public cannot know if police officers are being held accountable when they violate people’s rights.

Michelle Wu was asked about Patrick Rose’s internal affairs file. Her answer raises more questions. - The Boston Globe

Mayor Wu, speaking on a local news show, implied she was prevented from accessing the full, unredacted internal affairs report of Patrick Rose, the former Boston police officer and union president who last month pleaded guilty to molesting half a dozen children over several decades.

Howard was quoted in this Boston Globe article: Michelle Wu was asked about Patrick Rose’s internal affairs file. Her answer raises more questions.

In 1995, an internal Boston police investigation found that officer Patrick Rose likely molested a child. The department allowed him to keep his job and continue to interact with children. He recently pleaded guilty to molesting half a dozen children over his career as a police officer and police union president.

The Globe reports that Mayor Wu has not yet viewed the full internal affairs investigation of Rose. Howard and other experts agree that there is no reason why Mayor Wu should not be able to view complete, unredacted documents. Wu has not offered an explanation, leaving a question as to whether the barrier stems from state law, the police union, or the police department.

Keeping internal affairs investigations secret is a way to hide police misconduct from public view. Keeping the results of an investigation from Mayor Wu prevents her from being able to do her job. She needs to understand what happened in the past to prevent it from happening again. Patrick Rose pleaded guilty to 21 counts of child rape and sexual assault over a 27-year period. Secrecy allowed him to continue to abuse children. The City has a strong interest in making certain the system does not continue to protect police officers who have molested children.
