Description

On the surface, the Denver Police Department seems like any other: an urban police force saddled with a history of controversial police shootings, excessive uses of force, and allegations of racial and gender discrimination. But the department, led by Chief Gerry Whitman and Tracie Keesee, division chief of research, training and technology, is determined to make up for its lack of a squeaky clean record in a way that few others have tried before. It has opened itself up to an innovative, all-encompassing study, willing to see its scars and flaws--especially in how it polices minority communities--and vowed to follow through with substantive changes based on the study's findings.
