The ACLU will no longer receive the names of every CPD officer who stops a civilian on the street
The local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union will no longer receive the name of every Chicago Police officer who stops someone in the street. A 2015 agreement between the ACLU and CPD dictated that cops were required to fill out a two-page document for each stop, but many members of the Fraternal Order of Police blamed the form for the “80 percent drop in the number of investigatory stops conducted by officers last year,” according to DNAinfo Chicago. Officers will still have to fill out the form, but it will no longer include their name and badge number. [DNAinfo Chicago]
