The Civilian Complaint Review Board, New York City’s independent police watchdog, is recommending that the NYPD discipline 39 of its officers for misconduct at last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests. According to a CCRB report released on Monday, the violations ranged from excessive force and untruthful statements to offensive language and discourtesy.
One of the officers slated for potential discipline is a high-level deputy inspector whom the board found to have made a retaliatory arrest last May. Another is a deputy chief whom the board determined had inappropriately seized property at a June 3rd demonstration.
