Democracy Now!Minneapolis City Council Approves Consent Decree Mandating Federal Oversight of PoliceThe city of Minneapolis has agreed to a federal consent decree mandating reforms to its police department. Under the agreement, Minneapolis must monitor and investigate allegations of police misconduct, limit the use of force, improve officer training and respect protesters’ First Amendment rights. Officials raced to finalize the agreement before Donald Trump’s inauguration, as the former Trump administration opposed the use of consent decrees to reform police departments. The agreement comes more than four-and-a-half years after George Floyd was murdered by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, sparking a global movement for police accountability, prison abolition and racial justice. This comes just days after the Justice Department submitted its proposed consent decree over inhumane and brutal conditions faced by prisoners at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia. Dozens of prisoners have died there in recent years, including Lashawn Thompson, a Black man who was being held in the jail’s psychiatric wing, where his family says he was “eaten alive” by insects and bedbugs in his cell.
