This article does a great job of providing an accessible breakdown of what drives police abuse & why it is largely divorced from the makeup of the rank & file. In my investigations of police agencies across the country, the primary driver of excessive force & killings by police is clear: culture.

"Had law enforcement and prosecutors engaged more thoroughly with Jane Doe’s original complaint, they might have tempered the vigilantism that would eventually tinge much of the response to the case." This is such a critical point (made by Jessica Winter via @newyorker.com)—and a lesson for others.

Trump now says the Kennedy Center could be deadly. Months ago, it was ‘great.’

The president’s assessment of the Kennedy Center’s physical condition grew increasingly dire after his name went up on the building and revenue began to plunge.
