Defunding the Police Experiment Begins in L.A. edited - full story at
http://www.capoliticalreview.com/top-stories/defunding-the-police-experiment-begins-in-l-a/

​Last week the Los Angeles Police Department laid out plans to deal with a smaller budget forced on the LAPD in part by a $150 million cut as a result of the police reform movement.

LAPD Chief Michael Moore announced cuts in air support, robbery homicide and gang and narcotics divisions. Additionally, desk hours at police stations would be reduced, manned only during weekday hours. The police will stop investigating automobile accidents with minor injuries involved and will require accident reports to be filed online. Perhaps, most significantly, the LAPD sworn officer core will be reduced from 10,110 to 9,752. Having 10,000 officers was a goal for the police and many past mayoral administrations.


Police officer representatives are painting a dire outcome for the cuts to public safety. Craig Lally, president of the Police Protective League, 
told the Los Angeles Times that the new proposals and cutbacks will be a “catastrophe for the safety” of citizens.
