Attorney General Garland promises to prioritize investigating police departments that commit civil rights violations
Attorney General Merrick Garland on Wednesday promised to examine the practices of police departments around the country that commit civil rights violations in his first public comments since the police shooting death of Daunte Wright in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.
In a brief virtual address to civil rights leaders attending the Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network’s national convention, Garland said the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division “will also prioritize investigating whether government agencies are engaging in patterns or practices that deprive individuals of their federal or constitutional rights.”
