Policing by nature is not an easy job, but a Department of Justice investigation found patterns of misconduct in the Baltimore Police Department that are currently being addressed.
Now Baltimore Senator Joan Carter Conway is sponsoring a bill to make information in police misconduct investigations open to the public.
“Especially if in fact I’m the victim and I file a complaint against the police then I should be able to see the file to know the outcome or what the status of or whether or not they’re investigating and they currently do not do that,” Conway says.

They make my conduct public record, Goose/ Gander?
Of course!
Probably not directly, but there should at least be an oversight board in every department with civilians serving.
You can see every charge filed against anyone else in Maryland so why not?
YES!!! There is one that I know that has abused his position to do things that should not have been done to a dog.
Maybe the best oversight by politicians would be to put them in a uniform and badge and let them ride along in the right front seat, or walk the beat. That way they can be there to see and hear everything, not just edited materials.
