Once again, this isn't anecdotal evidence. This is the Chicago PD actual records, so this is a systemic issue of abuse. Just like the systemic racism in several states worth of police.
Yup, no institutional issues here, no sir. The system works, obviously 97% of the people complaining are all lying about the cops abuse them. For 2015, it's 99% of all complaints result in no punishment.
Anyone really believe this? Bueller? Bueller?
One interesting point, black police officers are twice as likely to be disciplined as a result of complaints then white officers.
Glad to see institutional racism still at work here. Cops are discriminate against their own based on skin color, not just other civilians.
And complaints from white people were more likely to have their complaints upheld as well.
And look at this fine upstanding cop:
Wow, 68 complaints, all ignored or white-washed. And he admits this is common practice and his superiors knew about it.
So fewbadapplse? Or perhaps lotsofbadapplse?

African-American officers were punished at twice the rate of their white colleagues for the same offenses, the data shows.
And complaints from white people were more likely to have their complaints upheld as well.
And although black civilians filed a majority of the complaints, white civilians were far more likely to have their complaints upheld, according to the records.
And look at this fine upstanding cop:
In 18 years with the Chicago Police Department, the nations second-largest, Jerome Finnigan had never been disciplined although 68 citizen complaints had been lodged against him, including accusations that he used excessive force and regularly conducted illegal searches.
Then, in 2011, he admitted to robbing criminal suspects while serving in an elite police unit and ordering a hit on a fellow police officer he thought intended to turn him in. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison. My bosses knew what I was doing out there, and it went on and on, he said in court when he pleaded guilty. And this wasnt the exception to the rule. This was the rule.
Wow, 68 complaints, all ignored or white-washed. And he admits this is common practice and his superiors knew about it.
